A crisp, high-contrast serif with strong vertical stress, hairline horizontals, and sharp, finely tapered serifs. The proportions feel generously wide with a stately, high-waisted posture, while curves are tightly controlled and smoothly finished. Terminals are clean and pointed rather than blunt, and joins stay narrow, producing a polished, glossy rhythm in both capitals and lowercase. Numerals echo the same sculpted contrast, with elegant curves and thin connections that read best when given adequate size and spacing.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and posters where the thin strokes can be preserved. It can work for short editorial deck copy or pull quotes when printed well and set with comfortable tracking and line spacing.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, projecting an editorial, luxury-forward voice. Its razor-thin details and bold main strokes create a sense of sophistication and formality, with a fashionable, high-end print sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion serif look that emphasizes contrast and precision. It aims for impact through sculpted letterforms and delicate detailing, prioritizing elegance and visual drama in display settings.
In the sample text, the thins become a prominent stylistic feature; at smaller sizes or on low-resolution outputs they may visually recede, while at display sizes they produce striking sparkle and sharpness. The wide set and pronounced contrast give headlines a measured, upscale cadence, especially in title case and short lines.
