A sharply cut italic serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. The letters show a pronounced rightward slant, narrow internal apertures, and pointed, wedge-like serifs that often resolve into fine terminals. Curves are taut and sculpted, with a distinctly "high-waisted" feel in many lowercase forms, and the overall rhythm alternates between stout main stems and very fine connecting strokes. Figures match the italic voice, with angular diagonals and delicate entry/exit strokes that keep the texture light despite the strong contrast.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, title treatments, fashion branding, and high-end packaging. It can work for short editorial passages when set at comfortable sizes with adequate leading, where its contrast and crisp details can be appreciated.
The font projects a polished, luxurious tone with a distinctly editorial and fashion-forward character. Its sharp contrast and poised italic movement create a sense of drama and sophistication, suited to designs that want to feel premium and intentional rather than purely utilitarian.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast italic with classic serif cues—optimized for striking typographic color and a refined, premium presence in display-led applications.
In text, the strong contrast and fine hairlines create a sparkling, high-definition texture that favors generous sizes and good printing or screen rendering. The italic construction is assertive, with energetic diagonals and sharp terminals that can become visually prominent in dense settings.
