A sharply italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. Strokes are clean and smoothly curved, with tapered joins and pointed, wedge-like serifs that often feel lightly bracketed. The letterforms are generously proportioned and slightly expansive, with a flowing rightward slant and lively, calligraphic entry/exit strokes. Numerals and lowercase share the same high-contrast rhythm, giving text a glossy, polished texture at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, titling, and other display roles where its high-contrast hairlines and italic flourish can be appreciated. It can also work for short-form editorial settings such as magazine intros, chapter openers, and refined brand marks where a formal, premium voice is desired.
The overall tone is sophisticated and cultured, evoking editorial fashion, classical book typography, and formal invitations. Its pronounced contrast and italic energy add drama and a sense of movement, while the traditional serif construction keeps it anchored in a refined, conventional register.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion italic serif with dramatic contrast and carefully shaped terminals, prioritizing elegance and visual impact. Its expansive proportions and decorative cursive cues suggest a focus on expressive display typography while maintaining a recognizably traditional serif foundation.
The italic forms show distinctive swash-like gestures in several lowercase letters (notably in terminals and tails), creating a decorative sparkle in words. The very fine hairlines suggest it will look best with ample size and spacing or in high-resolution print where delicate details can hold.
