A high-contrast serif with strong vertical emphasis, pairing sturdy main strokes with extremely fine hairlines. Serifs are thin and sharp with minimal bracketing, and many joins resolve into crisp wedge-like points. Curves are smooth and taut, with narrow apertures and clean counters that give the letters a polished, engraved feel. The uppercase is stately and relatively narrow in stance, while the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height with compact bowls and pronounced stroke contrast; numerals follow the same dramatic thick–thin rhythm.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion or beauty branding, premium packaging, and poster typography where the high contrast can be appreciated. It also works for pull quotes and short editorial decks when printed or rendered at sizes large enough to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is poised and high-end, with a dramatic sparkle that reads as fashion-forward and editorial. Its sharp hairlines and refined detailing suggest formality and precision rather than warmth or casualness. The texture on the page feels elegant and curated, lending a premium, classic atmosphere.
The design intention appears focused on delivering a modern, high-fashion interpretation of classic high-contrast serif forms: elegant proportions, strong verticals, and razor-thin finishing strokes that create a luxurious, attention-grabbing presence.
The font’s very thin horizontals and serifs create a bright, shimmering line when set in text, especially in mixed-case passages. Spacing appears even and controlled, supporting a crisp typographic color, while the pronounced contrast makes details more prominent at larger sizes than at small sizes.
