A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline terminals. The forms are built on a steep, consistent slant with narrow joins and crisp, unbracketed-looking serifs that often resolve into fine points or tapered strokes. Round letters stay airy and open, while verticals and diagonals create a sharp, high-waisted rhythm typical of modern serifs; counters are clean and the spacing feels intentionally generous for display use. Numerals and capitals carry the same refined contrast, with a notably sculpted “Q” tail and elegantly tapered diagonals in letters like “V”, “W”, and “X”.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other large-size typography where its contrast and tapered details can remain intact. It fits well in fashion and lifestyle editorial layouts, luxury branding, packaging, and formal invitations, and can be effective for short emphatic text rather than dense continuous reading.
The overall tone is poised and polished, projecting a couture/editorial sensibility with a distinctly formal, literary finish. Its light touch and razor contrast read as premium and sophisticated rather than utilitarian, lending a sense of ceremony and style.
This design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion take on a classic modern serif italic—prioritizing elegance, contrast, and expressive italic rhythm for display-led typography.
The italic construction is strongly calligraphic in gesture, with slender entry/exit strokes and occasional teardrop-like finishing details in the lowercase. The thin strokes approach hairline thickness in places, which emphasizes sparkle and refinement at larger sizes and in high-quality reproduction.
