A high-contrast serif italic with a distinctly calligraphic construction: thick verticals and sweeping diagonals are paired with extremely fine hairlines and sharp, unbracketed serifs. The italic angle is steady and elegant, with long, tapering entry and exit strokes that often finish in needle-like terminals. Capitals feel statuesque and formal, while the lowercase shows more movement—single-storey forms and fluid joins create a lively rhythm. Proportions are generous and spacious, producing an airy texture in setting, and the numerals follow the same contrast model with slender curves and precise, pointed finishing strokes.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and italic motion can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, luxury packaging, and high-impact posters. It can work for short editorial callouts or pull quotes when set with comfortable spacing and not too small.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a runway/editorial sensibility. Its sharp contrast and sweeping italic forms read as sophisticated and slightly theatrical, conveying refinement, prestige, and a sense of crafted elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, fashion-forward take on high-contrast serif italics: crisp, precise, and expressive, with enough flourish to signal luxury while maintaining an orderly, editorial structure.
In text, the extreme contrast makes the thick strokes dominate while hairlines recede, creating a sparkling, delicate texture that benefits from ample size and breathing room. Many letters feature extended, blade-like terminals and occasional swash-like tails that add flourish without becoming overtly decorative.
