A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced thick–thin rhythm, vertical stress, and extremely fine hairlines. The serifs are sharp and delicate with minimal bracketing, and many joins resolve into crisp, tapering points. Uppercase forms are tall and stately with generous curves (notably in C, G, and O) and a slightly calligraphic slant, while the lowercase is compact with a notably small x-height and narrow apertures that emphasize the contrast. Numerals follow the same refined logic, mixing sturdy main strokes with thin, needle-like diagonals and terminals.
Best suited to editorial headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, luxury packaging, and high-impact typographic moments where contrast and elegance are the goal. It can also work for short pull quotes or section openers when set with comfortable leading and ample size to preserve the hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and aspirational, with a distinctly luxurious, fashion-forward flavor. Its steep contrast and poised italics suggest formality and sophistication more than casual readability, giving text a cinematic, high-end editorial presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast italics: dramatic stroke modulation, crisp finishing, and a formal, cultivated rhythm. It prioritizes sophistication and visual sparkle in display typography over utilitarian text neutrality.
The italic construction is assertive, with long, sweeping entry/exit strokes on letters like f, j, and y, and lively curvature in s and g. Spacing appears tuned for display and headline settings, where the sharp terminals and hairlines can stay clean and intentional; at smaller sizes the fine details may require careful handling to avoid filling-in or breaking up in reproduction.
