A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced vertical stress, thick main strokes, and extremely fine hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate, often resolving into needle-like terminals, while curves are tightly drawn with crisp, glossy-looking joins. The italic angle is assertive and consistent across capitals and lowercase, with a rhythmic, calligraphic flow and noticeable width variation from glyph to glyph. Numerals follow the same logic, pairing bold verticals with hairline cross-strokes and refined curves.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, brand marks, invitations, and striking pull quotes. It performs especially well in larger sizes where its hairlines and sharp serifs remain clear, and where its italic energy can lead the reading rhythm.
The font projects a polished, high-fashion tone—confident, dramatic, and refined. Its sleek contrast and razor details read as upscale and editorial, with a sense of movement from the strong italic slant. Overall it feels designed to attract attention and signal sophistication rather than neutrality.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic high-contrast, fashion-oriented italics with modern crispness—prioritizing sharp detail, dramatic stroke modulation, and an elegant, editorial voice. It aims to deliver a premium, attention-grabbing texture in short to medium display text.
In text settings the thin strokes can visually recede, especially at smaller sizes or on lower-contrast outputs, while the heavier strokes remain prominent; the look is most coherent when given enough size and spacing to let the hairlines breathe. Capitals appear statuesque and formal, while the lowercase introduces more fluidity through brisk entry/exit strokes and tapered terminals.
