This is a sharply italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline connecting strokes. Serifs are small, bracketed, and often taper into pointed terminals, creating a crisp, engraved rhythm across words. Curves are smooth and tensioned, with narrow joins and delicate entry/exit strokes; counters stay open despite the fine hairlines. Uppercase forms feel tall and poised with a classic, high-contrast silhouette, while the lowercase shows a slightly calligraphic construction with a single-storey “a” and a looped “g,” maintaining a consistent forward slant and elegant spacing.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and elegant titling where the fine hairlines can be reproduced cleanly. It also fits premium branding, beauty/fashion packaging, and formal invitations when used at sizes that preserve its delicate details.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a dramatic elegance that reads as fashion-forward and editorial. Its hairline details and steep italic angle give it a cultured, expressive voice suited to sophisticated branding and premium storytelling.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary interpretation of classic high-contrast italic serifs, prioritizing elegance, motion, and a polished editorial presence. Its consistent slant, tapered terminals, and hairline detailing suggest a focus on refined display typography rather than rugged, utilitarian text use.
The numerals follow the same refined contrast and italic stress, with thin internal strokes and sculpted curves that match the letterforms. Diagonal letters and joins (such as in K, V, W, X, and y) emphasize tapering strokes and sharp, clean terminals, reinforcing a precise, luxurious texture.
