A slanted, high-contrast serif with hairline connections and emphatic thick strokes that create a crisp, rhythmic texture. Serifs are fine and sharp, with a distinctly chiseled, tapered feel at terminals, and many curves resolve into pointed, blade-like ends. The italics show a calligraphic construction with lively entry/exit strokes, narrow joins, and smooth, swelling bowls; overall spacing feels airy because the hairlines recede while the thick stems carry the word shape. Numerals follow the same contrast model, mixing sturdy main strokes with delicate diagonals and thin finishing strokes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and fashion or beauty layouts where its contrast can shine. It also fits luxury identities, packaging, and formal pieces like invitations or event materials, especially when set with generous spacing and at sizes that preserve the hairline detail.
The font conveys a polished, high-fashion sensibility—confident, poised, and slightly theatrical. Its razor-thin hairlines and sculpted terminals read as luxurious and formal, with an editorial sophistication that feels suited to premium branding.
Likely designed to deliver a classic, high-contrast italic voice that feels premium and contemporary at once, emphasizing sharpness, elegance, and a distinctive editorial presence for statement-setting and branding.
In continuous text the hairlines can visually disappear compared with the heavy strokes, producing a sparkling, high-contrast color that favors larger sizes. The italic angle and tapered terminals add momentum, giving headlines a sense of movement and refinement.
