A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The forms are tall and slender with a smooth, calligraphic forward slant and generally open counters. Curves show a steep, vertical-ish stress, and terminals often finish in fine points or tapered flicks, giving the letters a polished, high-fashion rhythm. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with elegant curves and light entry/exit strokes.
This style performs best in display contexts such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book jackets, and fashion or beauty branding. It can also lend a formal, upscale feel to invitations and short blocks of text when set at comfortable sizes and with careful spacing.
The overall tone is sophisticated and cultured, reading as luxurious and composed rather than casual. Its sharp contrast and poised italic movement suggest a premium, editorial voice suited to refined messaging.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern, polished italic with classic serif cues—prioritizing elegance, vertical tension, and razor-fine detailing to create a distinctly editorial look.
In text, the italic angle and thin hairlines create a lively, flowing line while preserving a structured, classical backbone. The letterspacing appears relatively tight, and the combination of narrow proportions and strong contrast favors larger sizes where the fine details can remain clear.
