A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Stems are strong and vertical while hairlines are extremely fine, creating crisp transitions and a bright, open texture on the page. Serifs are sharp and delicately tapered with minimal bracketing, and many joins resolve into pointed terminals. The overall proportion feels generous and horizontally expansive, with flowing curves and italic entry/exit strokes that keep letterforms connected in motion without becoming script-like.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, invitations, and high-end packaging. It also works well for pull quotes and short editorial passages where the italic energy and contrast can shine, especially in print or high-resolution digital contexts.
The font conveys a polished, upscale tone—dramatic in contrast yet controlled in drawing. It reads as contemporary-luxury and editorial, with a hint of classic book-italic heritage that adds sophistication rather than nostalgia. The visual voice is confident and stylish, suited to moments where typography should feel intentional and premium.
Designed to deliver an expressive, high-fashion italic serif with strong contrast and refined detailing. The intention appears to be a display-forward face that brings elegance and dynamism to titles and prominent text, while maintaining a coherent, traditional serif structure.
Round forms (such as O/Q and 0/8/9) show vertical stress and very thin top/bottom hairlines, emphasizing sparkle at larger sizes. The numerals match the italic inclination and contrast, giving figures a display-friendly presence. Spacing appears balanced for short lines and headings, while the extreme hairlines suggest more care at small sizes or on low-resolution output.
