A sharply drawn serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline horizontals that taper into fine, pointed serifs. The forms are compact and vertically oriented, with narrow letterfit, crisp terminals, and a consistent rightward slant. Curves are smooth and controlled, with small apertures and tight counters that emphasize a polished, high-definition texture in text. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic, mixing sturdy verticals with delicate joining strokes for a cohesive page color.
Well suited to fashion and lifestyle headlines, magazine features, and premium branding where a refined, high-contrast italic is desired. It can also work for pull quotes, titling, and short blocks of text when size and reproduction quality preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, combining a classic, high-fashion sensibility with a slightly theatrical sharpness. Its precision and contrast lend it a premium, editorial voice that feels formal, stylish, and confident rather than casual.
The design appears aimed at delivering a sophisticated, high-contrast serif italic for elegant display and editorial typography, prioritizing dramatic stroke contrast, crisp detailing, and a compact, stylish rhythm.
In the text sample, the narrow proportions and strong italic rhythm create lively word shapes and a forward-moving line. At smaller sizes, the hairlines and tight internal spaces read as delicate, giving the font a more display-leaning character despite its traditional serif structure.
