A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty main strokes. The serifs are fine and pointed, often resolving into delicate wedges or hairline terminals that emphasize the diagonal stress. Capitals feel sculptural and slightly narrow in places, while the lowercase shows lively, calligraphic joins and pronounced entry/exit strokes. The overall texture is crisp and rhythmic, with strong thick–thin modulation and a forward-leaning stance that keeps words energetic and tightly set.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, magazine layouts, pull quotes, and brand marks where its contrast and italic cadence can be appreciated. It can also work for short bursts of text—subheads or captions—when set with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing to preserve the hairline details.
The tone is luxurious and attention-grabbing, combining classic refinement with a fashion-forward snap. Its dramatic contrast and italic momentum give it a sense of urgency and sophistication, suitable for statements that should feel premium and styled.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of a classic serif italic—prioritizing drama, elegance, and a crisp printed look through extreme thick–thin contrast and finely drawn terminals.
Several forms lean into sharp internal corners and tapered arms, producing a distinctly chiseled silhouette at display sizes. Numerals and punctuation match the same high-contrast logic, reinforcing a cohesive, polished look across mixed-case settings.
