A slender italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, needle-like hairlines. The forms show a vertical stress and a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, with tapered terminals and small, sharp serifs that stay delicate even on heavier strokes. Counters are compact and apertures are relatively tight, creating a sleek, high-end silhouette that remains airy due to the light overall color.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, luxury packaging, invitations, and pull quotes. It can also work for short subheads or prominent captions when set with generous size and spacing, while long passages may benefit from careful leading and tracking due to the narrow proportions and fine detailing.
This typeface feels refined and fashion-forward, with a poised, editorial tone. Its sharp contrast and elegant slant read as luxurious and expressive rather than utilitarian, lending a sense of sophistication and drama.
The design appears intended to deliver an upscale, expressive italic voice—favoring beauty, rhythm, and contrast over neutral text economy. It’s shaped to create visual flair in headlines and brand moments, where sharp hairlines and tapered details can be appreciated.
The sample text shows a consistent, polished rhythm across uppercase and lowercase, with particularly striking swashes and curved descenders in letters like j, y, and g. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, appearing sleek and dressy for titling contexts.
