A sharply slanted serif with an elegant, calligraphic construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes resolve into small, tapered, flared endings rather than blunt terminals, giving counters and joins a crisp, chiseled feel. The rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in a deliberate way, with narrow hairlines, strong diagonals, and italic forms that emphasize forward motion. Letterforms show classic italic traits such as single-storey shapes and flowing entry/exit strokes, while figures follow the same refined contrast and angled stress.
Best suited to headlines, display copy, pull quotes, and titling where its high-contrast texture and italic energy can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding contexts—particularly fashion, beauty, culture, and event materials—where a refined, expressive serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is sophisticated and editorial, with a couture-like polish that reads premium and curated. Its sharp hairlines and dramatic modulation feel expressive and slightly dramatic, lending an elevated, poetic voice rather than a neutral one.
This design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of an italic serif, prioritizing elegance, motion, and a striking thick–thin signature. The flared endings and crisp hairlines suggest a focus on sophisticated display typography that remains readable in short-to-medium passages.
At text sizes the thin hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining texture, creating a bright, airy page color with crisp highlights. The italic angle and energetic curves give short words strong emphasis, while longer lines retain an elegant, magazine-like cadence.
