This typeface is a sharply slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. The letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with long ascenders/descenders and a clean, taut rhythm across words. Serifs are delicate and often wedge-like or needle-pointed, with smooth, calligraphic joins and tapered terminals that give curves a polished, drawn quality. Counters are relatively tight and forms feel streamlined, producing a compact texture that stays refined rather than dense.
Best suited to editorial settings where elegance and contrast are an asset—magazine headlines, section openers, pull quotes, and luxury branding. It also works well for posters, invitations, and packaging that benefits from a refined, high-impact italic voice. For sustained small text, the delicate hairlines suggest using comfortable sizes and considerate reproduction conditions.
The overall tone is sophisticated and stylized, leaning toward luxury and editorial drama. Its high-fashion poise and controlled sharpness convey elegance, restraint, and a slightly theatrical flair that reads as premium and curated.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary, fashion-leaning interpretation of a classic italic serif: narrow, swift, and highly contrasted to deliver sophistication and punch in display and editorial typography.
In the sample text, the strong diagonal stress and narrow proportions create a lively forward motion, while the extreme contrast makes fine details sparkle at larger sizes. The digit set follows the same calligraphic contrast, with slender strokes and distinctive curves that feel display-oriented.
