A very delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms are built on a steep, consistent slant with long, tapering serifs and sharp terminals that give a crisp, engraved feel. Curves are smoothly drawn and often end in fine points, while verticals and key diagonals carry the darkest strokes, producing a clear high-contrast rhythm. Proportions are slender with generous ascenders and descenders, and overall spacing reads open for such a refined, light construction.
It excels in magazine mastheads, pull quotes, and headline settings where high contrast and hairline detail can be preserved. The refined italic makes it well suited to luxury branding, beauty and fragrance packaging, and elegant invitations. For best results, use at larger sizes or in high-resolution print/digital contexts where the thin strokes remain clear.
The font conveys a polished, luxurious tone associated with fashion and high-end editorial typography. Its airy hairlines and graceful italic movement feel sophisticated and romantic rather than utilitarian. The overall impression is poised and formal, designed to look beautiful at display sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, fashion-forward italic serif with maximum elegance through extreme contrast, sharp hairlines, and fluid calligraphic motion. It prioritizes visual sophistication and a distinctive editorial voice over robust, everyday text readability.
Distinctive italic character is reinforced by teardrop-like joins and fine entry/exit strokes on many lowercase letters, plus a notably swashed, calligraphic flavor in several capitals and figures. The numerals maintain the same contrast and elegance, with thin cross-strokes and curved forms that match the text color of the alphabet.
