A delicate outline serif with a consistent rightward slant and an overall high-waisted, elongated silhouette. Letterforms are built from a single, hairline contour that traces broad, softly modulated shapes, creating the impression of traditional italic construction without filled strokes. Capitals show classical serif structure with tapered terminals and gently cupped joins, while the lowercase is narrow and flowing with looped forms (notably in g, y, and z) and compact bowls. Curves are smooth and slightly oval, spacing is fairly open for an outline design, and numerals follow the same italic, sculpted rhythm with clear, readable silhouettes.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, mastheads, brand marks, packaging, and editorial pull quotes where the outline effect can read clearly. It can also work for invitations or fashion/beauty collateral, especially when paired with a solid text face for body copy.
The font reads as refined and airy, with a couture-like elegance that feels both vintage and lightly theatrical. Its outline treatment gives it a luminous, engraved quality—more display-oriented than utilitarian—suited to sophisticated, attention-getting typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic serif voice in a lightweight, outline-only rendering, emphasizing elegance and motion while keeping the page visually open. It prioritizes graceful contours and stylish word shapes over dense text texture.
Because the strokes are only defined by thin contours, the design relies strongly on silhouette and spacing; it benefits from generous sizes and supportive contrast in background/foreground. The italic angle and serif detailing create a continuous, forward motion across words, which is especially apparent in longer sample lines.
