A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms show a strong rightward slant and a smooth, flowing rhythm, with tapered serifs and pointed terminals that give contours a razor-sharp feel. Curves are drawn with generous bowls and narrow joins, while capitals are tall and elegant with ample internal whitespace. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, mixing fine entry strokes with emphasized main stems for a lively, high-fashion texture.
Well suited to fashion and lifestyle editorial, mastheads, pull quotes, and elegant headline settings where contrast and refinement are assets. It can also serve premium branding, packaging, and event materials such as invitations or menus, especially at larger sizes where the hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone is polished and sophisticated, leaning toward couture and magazine aesthetics. Its sharp contrast and airy color create a sense of exclusivity and drama, while the italic movement adds a graceful, expressive voice rather than a strictly utilitarian one.
The font appears designed to deliver an elegant, modernized italic serif voice with dramatic contrast and clean, pointed finishing—prioritizing visual sophistication and expressive rhythm for prominent typography.
The design relies on extremely fine hairlines, so it reads best when printing or rendering can preserve thin details. Spacing appears open and the italic rhythm is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, supporting a smooth, continuous line in setting.
