A high-contrast italic serif with sharp hairlines, swelling curves, and a crisp, polished finish. The capitals are wide and stately with long, tapered entry and exit strokes, while many joins and terminals resolve into fine points that emphasize the slanted rhythm. Serifs are small and delicately bracketed, and the curves show pronounced thick–thin modulation that reads as engraved or pen-influenced rather than geometric. Numerals follow the same elegant contrast, with slender interior counters and tapered terminals that keep the texture airy at display sizes.
Best used for display typography such as magazine titles, fashion and beauty campaigns, premium brand marks, invitations, and dramatic pull quotes. It can also work for short passages like decks or intros when set with ample size and comfortable line spacing to preserve the delicate strokes.
The overall tone is sophisticated and theatrical, projecting an editorial, couture sensibility. Its strong contrast and flowing italic movement feel elegant and confident, suited to high-end branding where a touch of drama is welcome.
Designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion italic voice rooted in classic contrast, balancing refined serif detailing with bold, sweeping forms for attention-grabbing display work.
At larger sizes the hairlines and pointed terminals create a sparkling texture; in smaller settings those fine details can become fragile, especially in dense lines. The italic construction gives the text a forward motion, and the generous widths in capitals help headlines feel expansive and premium.
