A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and long, tapering hairlines. The letterforms lean noticeably, with a crisp, high-contrast rhythm and finely cut terminals that often finish in sharp points or small wedges rather than blunt endings. Serifs are understated and razor-thin, giving the face an airy texture; bowls and curves are drawn with smooth, continuous strokes, while diagonals (as in A, V, W, X) feel especially taut and sleek. Lowercase forms show a gently calligraphic flow, with narrow apertures and elegant entry/exit strokes; numerals follow the same refined contrast, featuring thin cross-strokes and graceful curves.
Well suited to fashion and lifestyle layouts, magazine headlines, and high-end branding where a refined, high-contrast italic voice is desirable. It also fits short passages in print-oriented editorial design, pull quotes, and formal materials such as invitations, where the airy strokework can be showcased at larger sizes.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, with a runway/editorial sensibility. Its thin hairlines and polished italic movement convey sophistication and a sense of quiet drama rather than warmth or sturdiness.
The font appears intended to deliver a contemporary, couture-leaning interpretation of classic italic serifs: maximizing elegance through extreme contrast, sharp finishing details, and a smooth, calligraphic cadence.
The design reads best when allowed breathing room: thin horizontals and sharp hairline joins create a shimmering texture that can become fragile at very small sizes or in low-resolution contexts. The italic construction feels integral (not merely slanted), with shapes and terminals designed to emphasize forward motion and elegance.
