A delicate, right-leaning serif with razor-thin hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are sharp and finely tapered, with smooth bracketless or lightly bracketed transitions that keep the texture crisp. Curves are tightly controlled and glossy, while diagonals (notably in A, V, W, X, Y) read as steep and energetic. The lowercase shows a compact, editorial rhythm with a two-storey g, a single-storey a, and narrow apertures that emphasize a clean, high-fashion silhouette; figures follow the same elegant, slanted, high-contrast construction.
Well suited to magazine typography, cultural/editorial headlines, luxury branding, and packaging where an elegant, high-contrast italic can carry the voice. It can also work for formal invitations or short passages at larger sizes, where the delicate detailing and lively slant remain clear.
The overall tone is poised and upscale, projecting a sense of luxury and cultivated taste. Its strong contrast and italic motion lend drama and sophistication, evoking classic print refinement and contemporary fashion polish.
Designed to deliver a polished, modern-classic italic voice with dramatic contrast and fine serifs, prioritizing elegance and visual sparkle over rugged, small-size utility. The letterforms aim for an editorial and fashion-oriented texture that feels both traditional and sharply contemporary.
In text, the light hairlines create a sparkling, high-end color that rewards generous sizes and careful reproduction. The italic angle and tapered terminals add continuous forward movement, making it especially expressive in display settings while remaining orderly and controlled.
