A high-contrast italic serif with strong thick–thin modulation, narrow hairlines, and sharply cut wedge serifs. The overall rhythm is right-leaning and energetic, with sweeping entry/exit strokes and tapered terminals that create a crisp, polished silhouette. Uppercase forms feel stately and slightly condensed in their internal spaces, while lowercase shows lively movement through curved joins and bulb-like teardrop details on certain strokes. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, mixing sturdy main strokes with fine connecting hairlines for a cohesive, dressy texture.
Best suited to display roles such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and high-impact posters. It also works well for short pull quotes or titles where its contrast and italic motion can be appreciated without crowding.
The font reads as elegant and performative, combining classic editorial sophistication with a bit of theatrical flair. Its sharp hairlines and sweeping italics project luxury and confidence, making the tone feel elevated and intentionally attention-grabbing.
Likely designed to deliver a modern high-fashion italic serif voice: strong contrast, crisp detailing, and a dynamic slant that adds immediacy while retaining classical refinement. The intent appears focused on sophisticated display typography rather than neutral, long-form reading.
At text sizes the hairlines and tight apertures can visually sharpen the overall color, especially in dense settings; it shines most when given room and strong contrast between foreground and background. The italic construction is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, preserving a continuous slanted flow in mixed-case typography.
