A hairline, right-slanted sans with gently tapered strokes and soft modulation that reads like a pen-drawn italic rather than a rigid oblique. Forms are wide and open, with rounded bowls and smooth curves contrasted by sharp, clean terminals. The rhythm is light and flowing, with generous counters and a slightly calligraphic entry/exit logic on many strokes. Uppercase shapes stay streamlined and geometric-leaning, while lowercase shows a more handwritten construction, including a looped single-story g and a lively, curved y and f.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, posters, invitations, and elegant short-form messaging. It can also work for pull quotes or large captions where its fine strokes and open spacing have room to breathe.
The font conveys a refined, airy sophistication with a contemporary, fashion-forward feel. Its delicate stroke presence and graceful slant create an expressive tone suited to polished, upscale communication rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to offer a minimal, high-fashion italic voice: a clean sans foundation softened by calligraphic modulation and wide, open proportions. It prioritizes elegance and motion over dense text efficiency.
Because the strokes are extremely thin, the design relies on size and whitespace for clarity; at smaller sizes it may appear faint. Numerals follow the same light, tapered logic and keep an elegant, slightly calligraphic profile that pairs well with the letterforms.
