A hairline italic slab-serif with crisp, unbracketed terminals and a noticeably open, spacious rhythm. Strokes are extremely thin with minimal modulation, giving the letterforms a clean, drawn-with-a-pen precision rather than a heavily engraved feel. Proportions are generous and slightly extended, with long diagonals and ample counters; lowercase forms sit on a relatively tall x-height with narrow joins and delicate, square-ended serifs that read as small slabs. Numerals and capitals follow the same lean, maintaining consistent slant and light texture across the set.
Best suited to fashion and lifestyle headlines, magazine display, and brand marks where delicacy and sophistication are desirable. It can also work for invitations, packaging, and short editorial pull quotes, especially at larger sizes where the hairline strokes and crisp serif details remain clear.
The overall tone is refined and fashion-forward, combining a minimalist lightness with a quietly classic italic manner. It suggests premium editorial design—poised, restrained, and contemporary—without becoming overly ornate or nostalgic.
The design appears intended to deliver an ultra-light, modern italic voice with slab-serif cues—prioritizing elegance, whitespace, and a clean linear feel for high-end display typography.
Because the stroke weight is so fine, spacing and the open shapes become a major part of its character; the texture stays bright and airy even in longer lines of text. The square-ended serifs and sharp diagonals add a slightly technical edge to an otherwise graceful, fluid italic.
