A high-contrast italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and swelling, tapered main strokes. Serifs are sharp and bracketing is minimal, giving terminals a crisp, cut-in feel and a polished, display-oriented finish. The italic structure is brisk and forward-leaning, with narrow joins and pronounced stroke modulation that creates a lively rhythm across words. Curves are smooth and glossy, while diagonals and entry/exit strokes often end in needlelike points, keeping the overall color light despite the bold thick strokes.
Best suited to editorial headlines, fashion and lifestyle layouts, premium branding, and large-format display typography where the delicate hairlines remain clear. It can add a refined, dramatic voice to titles, pull quotes, invitations, and short promotional copy, especially when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The tone is luxe and editorial, projecting a poised, high-fashion elegance with a hint of drama. Its crisp hairlines and incisive terminals evoke classic print sophistication and a sense of premium craft.
Designed to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast italic serifs, emphasizing sharp elegance, glossy curves, and a confident editorial rhythm. The intent appears focused on elevated display settings where sophistication and visual sparkle are priorities.
Uppercase forms read stately and sculptural, while the lowercase is more fluid and calligraphic, giving mixed-case settings strong contrast in personality. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic and feel suited to display use where their delicate hairlines can be preserved.
