A sharply inclined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline joins, creating a crisp, high-fashion rhythm across text. Capitals are tall and poised with wedge-like, finely tapered serifs and clean, calligraphic terminals. Lowercase forms are compact and fluid, with slender entry/exit strokes and occasional swash-like curves (notably in letters such as g, y, z), while counters remain open enough for display use. Numerals follow the same refined contrast pattern, leaning forward with delicate horizontals and tapered ends.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine display typography, fashion branding, and elegant packaging where its contrast and italic flow can be appreciated. It also works well for invitations, certificates, and pull quotes, especially when given ample size and whitespace.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a sense of editorial sophistication and theatrical contrast. Its energetic slant and razor-thin details lend a stylish, cosmopolitan character that feels at home in luxury and cultural contexts rather than utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended as a refined, display-leaning italic serif that emphasizes elegance and contrast, pairing classical serif structure with a more expressive, calligraphic motion for high-impact typography.
At larger sizes the hairlines and sharp terminals read as intentional ornament, giving words a sparkling texture and a distinctive italic cadence. In dense paragraphs the strong contrast and narrow hairlines can make spacing and alignment feel more delicate, favoring generous leading and careful typesetting.
