A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. The forms lean on tall capitals and a comparatively compact lowercase, creating a high-waisted, display-forward proportion. Serifs are sharp and lightly bracketed, while many curves show a subtle calligraphic logic with smooth transitions into very thin joins. Round letters keep a controlled vertical stress, and the overall rhythm alternates between solid main strokes and threadlike connecting hairlines for a polished, luxurious texture.
Best suited for magazine headlines, luxury branding, beauty and fashion collateral, and premium packaging where sharp contrast and delicate detailing can be appreciated. It also fits invitations and short-form editorial pull quotes, especially when set with generous spacing and ample size.
The tone is sophisticated and theatrical—suited to upscale editorial contexts where contrast and finesse read as premium. Its delicate hairlines and poised silhouettes evoke fashion, culture, and classical refinement rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary Didone-leaning editorial voice: striking contrast, elegant proportions, and stylized letterforms that create a memorable, upscale presence in display typography.
Distinctive details include a graceful, looped lowercase g, fine pointed diagonals in letters like V/W, and numerals that echo the same contrast with elegant curves and slim terminals. At larger sizes the crisp stroke endings and high contrast feel precise; in denser settings the thin hairlines become a key visual feature and may require careful size and spacing choices.
