A delicate italic serif with sharp, hairline-thin serifs and strong thick–thin modulation. Stems are narrowly proportioned and cleanly tapered, with a consistent rightward slant and predominantly vertical stress in the rounded letters. The serifs are crisp and mostly unbracketed, and many joins resolve into pointed terminals that keep counters open and shapes airy. Uppercase forms feel tall and poised, while the lowercase shows a smooth, calligraphic flow with compact, controlled curves; numerals follow the same refined, high-precision rhythm.
Well suited to magazine layouts, fashion and beauty branding, and luxury packaging where refined contrast can be showcased. It excels in headlines, pull quotes, and titling, and can work for short text passages at comfortable sizes and spacing where its thin details remain clear.
The overall tone is luxurious and couture-leaning, with a polished, high-fashion sheen. Its extreme finesse and italic movement create a sense of drama and sophistication, reading as premium, formal, and aspirational rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast italic with classic Didone cues—prioritizing elegance, precision, and a dramatic typographic voice for premium editorial and brand settings.
Because so much of the structure relies on fine hairlines, the design reads best when given room to breathe—generous tracking and comfortable leading help preserve its crispness. The italic angle and sharp terminals produce a lively texture in continuous text, with particularly striking emphasis in titles and short phrases.
