A refined modern serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and a pronounced vertical axis. Stems are firm and straight while transitions resolve into extremely fine hairlines, creating a crisp, polished texture. Serifs are delicate and sharply cut, generally unbracketed, with long, elegant proportions and generous counters that keep the letterforms open despite the slender build. The lowercase shows a restrained, bookish rhythm, with light entry/exit strokes and a distinctly calligraphic contrast that becomes especially evident in curved letters and numerals.
This face is best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, luxury brand identities, and high-end packaging. It also fits formal applications like invitations and event materials where a crisp, elegant serif voice is desired, especially when used with ample whitespace and larger point sizes.
The overall tone is poised and high-end, evoking contemporary editorial and fashion typography. Its razor-thin details and elegant proportions communicate sophistication and formality, with a cool, metropolitan polish rather than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, high-fashion serif voice: steep contrast, fine finishing strokes, and a disciplined upright structure meant to look premium and editorial. Its letterforms prioritize elegance and sparkle on the page over utilitarian robustness, aligning it with display-led typography and refined brand work.
At larger sizes the fine terminals and hairlines read as intentionally luxurious and precise, while at smaller sizes those same details may become fragile, making spacing and contrast management important in layout. The figures and capitals feel designed for display settings, with clean geometry and a measured, composed presence in mixed-case text.
