A refined modern serif with razor-thin hairlines and bold vertical stems, creating a crisp, sparkling contrast across both uppercase and lowercase. Serifs are sharp and minimally bracketed, and the overall drawing leans toward vertical stress with smooth, controlled curves in letters like C, G, O, and S. Proportions feel tall and statuesque, with generous ascenders and a relatively small x-height that gives the lowercase an airy, high-end rhythm. Counters are clean and open, while joins and terminals remain precise, producing a polished, fashion-forward texture in text and an especially dramatic look at display sizes.
Best suited for magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and elegant invitations where its sharp hairlines can be appreciated. It also works well for large pull quotes and hero text on the web, especially when paired with a simpler companion for body copy.
The font conveys luxury and restraint—cool, poised, and contemporary with a distinctly editorial sensibility. Its delicate details read as sophisticated and premium, evoking runway branding, high-end packaging, and magazine typography rather than utilitarian everyday text.
The design appears aimed at a modern, high-fashion serif voice: maximizing elegance through extreme contrast, vertical emphasis, and precise serif detailing. It prioritizes visual drama and typographic sophistication for display and editorial settings.
At smaller sizes the thinnest strokes and fine serifs are likely to fade, while the strong thick–thin modulation produces a distinctive, high-contrast pattern that becomes more comfortable as size increases. The numeral set matches the same dramatic contrast and elegant curves, supporting display-centric composition and refined typographic hierarchy.
