A delicate italic serif with dramatic stroke modulation and long, tapered hairlines. The letterforms show a calligraphic rhythm with a consistent rightward slant, narrow joins, and fine, sharp serifs that often end in pointed terminals. Curves are smooth and generous, counters are open, and the overall texture is airy, relying on thin horizontals and crisp entry/exit strokes for a sleek, high-end look.
Best suited for fashion and lifestyle editorial design, magazine headlines, luxury branding, and short-form typographic statements where its fine details can be appreciated. It also fits invitations, packaging accents, and pull quotes, especially at larger sizes and with comfortable spacing.
The font communicates sophistication and restraint, with a polished, couture-like tone. Its slender strokes and graceful italic movement feel romantic and literary, while the crisp detailing keeps it modern and upscale.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion italic serif voice—prioritizing grace, contrast, and refined detail over heavy text durability. It aims to evoke classic calligraphy and modern editorial styling in a cohesive, polished system.
Capitals are prominent and elegant, with swooping curves (notably in C, G, Q) and a refined, slightly theatrical presence in display settings. Numerals follow the same calligraphic, high-contrast logic, with thin connecting strokes that favor elegance over robustness.
