A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a strong vertical axis. The design pairs full, sculpted main strokes with extremely fine hairlines and sharp, unbracketed serifs, creating crisp, high-definition edges. Proportions read generously wide with ample counters and open apertures, while curves are taut and controlled. Capitals feel stately and stable, and the lowercase maintains a measured rhythm with compact joins and delicate terminals that stay consistent across the set. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with prominent stems and slender connecting strokes.
Best suited to display typography such as fashion and culture headlines, magazine mastheads, premium packaging, and luxury brand systems. It also works for short editorial decks and pull quotes where the contrast can be appreciated without hairlines breaking down.
The overall tone is elevated and theatrical, projecting polish, exclusivity, and modern classicism. Its dramatic contrast and razor-fine details give it a runway/editorial attitude—confident, glamorous, and intentionally attention-grabbing.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary high-fashion serif voice: classic in construction but sharpened for modern, high-contrast impact. It prioritizes elegance and visual drama through extreme modulation, crisp serifs, and spacious proportions.
At larger sizes the hairlines and serifs become a defining feature, producing a sleek sparkle in text settings. The wide stance and generous spacing in the sample help maintain clarity despite the delicate strokes, while the strong verticals keep words looking structured and formal.
