A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapered terminals and delicate hairlines set against robust vertical strokes. The overall drawing leans wide with generous sidebearings, producing an airy, confident rhythm in text. Serifs are fine and pointed, with a calligraphic slant that creates lively entry/exit strokes and a slightly swashy feel in places, while counters stay relatively open for a crisp, print-oriented texture.
Best suited to display sizes where the contrast and sharp terminals can shine—magazine headlines, pull quotes, fashion and luxury branding, and sophisticated poster work. It can also work for short editorial subheads or titles when ample spacing and high-quality reproduction are available.
The tone is polished and upscale, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-forward presence. Its steep contrast and incisive details add drama and sophistication, giving headlines a poised, cultivated voice rather than an informal or rustic one.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion serif voice in an italic cut, emphasizing drama through contrast and precision through finely cut serifs. Its width and open spacing suggest a goal of commanding, elegant presence in titles while keeping text rhythm smooth and confident.
The italic construction is assertive, with strong directional stress and a brisk baseline flow. Uppercase forms feel stately and display-minded, while the lowercase maintains clarity but retains stylized moments (notably in curved letters and descenders) that read as intentional and decorative. Numerals match the same sharp, high-contrast logic, supporting consistent typographic color in mixed settings.
