A sharply contrasted italic serif with tall, tightly set proportions and pronounced vertical stress. Thick stems pair with very fine hairlines and crisp, unbracketed serifs, creating a sleek rhythm and bright internal counters. The italic construction is consistent and forward-leaning, with tapered terminals and occasional swash-like curves (notably in forms like J, Q, and the descending lowercase), giving the design a lively, calligraphic edge while maintaining a polished, structured silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, magazine/editorial layouts, fashion and beauty branding, and other applications where refined contrast is a feature rather than a liability. It performs well for short passages, pull quotes, and titling where its narrow footprint and crisp hairlines can be shown at comfortable display sizes.
The overall tone is elegant and high-fashion, with a dramatic, luxury feel that reads as curated and intentional. Its narrow, sculpted letters convey sophistication and speed, balancing classic formality with a slightly expressive, display-oriented flair.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast italic serifs: compact, elegant, and attention-grabbing. Its goal seems to be creating a luxurious display voice with strong typographic color and distinctive, tapered detailing.
Uppercase characters appear especially condensed and statuesque, while the lowercase maintains a smooth, continuous texture in text. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic and feel suited to prominent use rather than small, utilitarian settings. The combination of strong thick–thin modulation and tight spacing makes the typeface visually commanding at larger sizes.
