A slender italic serif with pronounced stroke contrast and a clear vertical stress. Hairline horizontals and serifs meet fuller stems, producing a crisp, polished rhythm across text. Serifs are sharp and minimally bracketed, and many joins resolve into tapered, calligraphic-like entry and exit strokes typical of italic construction. The overall texture is bright and airy, with compact letterfit and slightly elongated proportions that emphasize finesse over sturdiness.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and refined branding where a luxurious italic voice is desired. It also fits invitations, programs, and packaging that benefit from a polished, classical feel, especially at medium to large sizes where the hairlines can remain clear.
The tone is poised and upscale, leaning toward fashion and literary sophistication rather than casual or utilitarian use. Its delicate hairlines and sleek slant convey luxury, precision, and a composed formality.
Designed to deliver a classic high-fashion italic impression with crisp detail and a controlled, high-contrast silhouette. The intent appears to prioritize elegance and expressive emphasis in typography while maintaining a consistent, disciplined serif structure.
Uppercase forms feel stately and controlled, while the lowercase italic introduces more movement through curved shoulders and tapered terminals. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and slender build, reading as elegant in display settings but visually delicate at small sizes or on low-contrast backgrounds.
