This typeface is a slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. Stems are straight and sharply tapered into fine terminals, while bowls and curves show a smooth, polished draw with minimal bracketing. The overall color is airy and bright due to the fine horizontals and delicate connecting strokes, and the rhythm feels slightly calligraphic despite its precise, high-contrast construction. Uppercase forms are tall and poised, and the lowercase maintains a measured, book-italic cadence with compact joins and narrow apertures.
Well-suited to magazine settings, fashion and beauty branding, and elegant headlines where high contrast and italic motion add personality. It also works for upscale invitations, short pull quotes, and refined packaging text where a polished, classic impression is desired.
The tone is luxurious and editorial, combining formality with a sense of speed and sophistication from the italic angle. Its contrast and needle-like finishing give it a dramatic, couture feel, while the classic serif structure keeps it grounded and traditional.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion italic voice: a contemporary, sharp-cut serif with an emphasis on elegance, contrast, and refined details. Its forms prioritize sophistication and display impact while retaining the familiar structure of conventional text serifs.
The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing sturdy verticals with very fine hairlines and elegant curves, creating a refined, display-ready set. In continuous text the thin strokes can visually recede, so the face reads best when given sufficient size and clean reproduction.
