This is a high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and razor-fine hairlines. The letterforms are narrow and upright in their italic stance, with a crisp, polished rhythm and strongly tapered joins. Serifs are delicate and sharp rather than bracketed, and many strokes end in needle-like terminals that emphasize a sophisticated, calligraphic sheen. Uppercase forms feel stately and structured, while the lowercase is more fluid and cursive in construction, maintaining tight spacing and a clean, glossy texture in text.
It performs best in short to medium display settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and luxury brand lockups where its hairlines and contrast can be appreciated. It can also suit invitations and formal announcements, especially when paired with a restrained companion for longer passages.
The overall tone is luxurious and editorial, projecting refinement and a sense of modern classicism. Its dramatic contrast and sleek italic movement give it a fashionable, high-end voice suited to display-forward typography.
The design appears intended to evoke a contemporary, couture-leaning italic with classic serif manners—prioritizing elegance, contrast, and a refined silhouette for premium display typography.
The numerals follow the same contrast-heavy logic, with slim horizontals and curved forms that read as stylish rather than utilitarian. In text, the narrow proportions and hairline details create an airy, high-fashion color that benefits from generous sizes and careful background contrast.
