A slanted serif with striking thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline details. The design shows a broad, airy stance and large oval bowls, with long, tapered terminals and sharp, wedge-like serifs that often resolve into needle points. Curves feel tightly tensioned and glossy, while joins and stroke endings are cut with precise angles that emphasize the italic flow. Spacing and rhythm read open and upscale, with a pronounced baseline sweep and a consistent, high-fashion silhouette across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, luxury packaging, event posters, and dramatic pull quotes. It can also work for short, high-impact text where elegance and contrast are prioritized over long-form comfort.
The overall tone is elegant and dramatic, with a runway/editorial polish. Its sharp contrast and sleek italic movement create a sense of speed and sophistication, lending a premium, attention-grabbing voice rather than a quiet, utilitarian one.
This font appears designed to deliver a contemporary Didone-like italic expression: high contrast, sharp finishing, and a wide, confident stance intended to signal luxury and editorial authority in prominent sizes.
At larger sizes the hairline serifs and fine inner counters become a defining feature, giving the letters a razor-sharp sparkle. The italic slant is assertive, and the pointed terminals in letters like C, S, and the diagonals add a distinctly sculptural bite that reads best when given room.
