A high-contrast serif with a crisp, polished silhouette and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are fine and sharp, often wedge-like, and the joins feel clean and controlled, producing an elegant, slightly “cut” look at terminals. Capitals are stately and wide-set with generous bowls and tapered stems, while the lowercase shows a classic book-face rhythm with a two-storey a and g, compact apertures, and a smooth, upright flow. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with delicate hairlines and sculpted curves that read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited to fashion and lifestyle magazine typography, striking headlines, and premium branding where its contrast and sharp serifs can shine. It also fits elegant packaging and display-led identity work, and can serve as a sophisticated text companion when set large enough to preserve its hairline detail.
The overall tone is sophisticated and editorial, projecting luxury and confidence through dramatic contrast and razor-fine details. It feels poised and contemporary rather than nostalgic, with a couture, magazine-forward presence.
The font appears designed to deliver an upscale, editorial voice by combining classical serif structure with modern, high-contrast finishing and precise, pointed terminals. Its forms prioritize elegance and impact in display use while maintaining conventional serif readability cues in the lowercase.
The design relies on very thin hairlines, so the finest strokes and serifs can appear delicate as sizes get smaller or on lower-resolution output. Curves and diagonals keep a refined tension, giving the text a sleek, high-end texture in larger settings.
