A sharply inclined serif italic with dramatic thick–thin modulation and hairline joins. Stems are narrow and tapered, with pointed terminals and finely cut serifs that read as wedges rather than brackets. Counters are compact and vertically stressed, while curves (notably in C, G, and S) show a polished, tensioned rhythm typical of high-contrast italics. Lowercase forms are slender with small, crisp entry strokes and a smooth, continuous flow; ascenders are tall and the overall texture is light and striated, emphasizing verticality and speed.
Best used for display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, luxury branding, packaging, and event materials where a refined italic voice is desired. It can also work for short subheads or captions when ample size and leading preserve its hairlines and sharp details.
The font projects a poised, editorial sophistication—stylish and deliberate, with a couture-like polish. Its high-contrast sparkle and steep italic angle create a sense of luxury and drama, suited to refined, high-attention settings rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast italic serif with a distinctly editorial personality—prioritizing elegance, sparkle, and a narrow, space-efficient silhouette for attention-grabbing setting.
Spacing appears tight and the internal white space is narrow, producing a compact, energetic color in words. Numerals follow the same high-contrast, narrow construction, with distinctive curved forms (notably the 2 and 9) that reinforce a classic, fashion-forward tone.
