A hairline italic serif with extreme stroke contrast and a steep rightward slant. The design relies on long, tapering entry and exit strokes, sharp terminals, and fine, bracketed serifs that often resolve into pointed, calligraphic tips. Counters are narrow and vertical, with tall ascenders and descenders that create a lively, upward rhythm; capitals are especially elongated and sculptural. Numerals follow the same thin, high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and minimal weight in the thinnest parts.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, luxury branding, packaging, pull quotes, and event materials where its contrast and italic movement can be appreciated. It also works well for short, elegant text blocks when set large with comfortable tracking and line spacing.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-oriented feel. Its lightness and sharp finishing give it a refined, airy presence that reads as premium and delicate rather than utilitarian.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary take on high-fashion italic serifs, prioritizing dramatic contrast, sharp elegance, and expressive word shapes for premium display typography.
At text sizes the hairline thins and tight internal spaces can make long passages feel fragile, while larger sizes emphasize the dramatic contrast and sweeping italic motion. The sample shows strong word-shape and line rhythm, with occasional razor-thin joins and terminals that benefit from generous sizing and careful contrast control in layout.
