A refined italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline finishing. The forms are tall and tightly proportioned, with crisp wedge-like serifs and a strong forward slant that creates a fast, continuous rhythm in text. Curves show a clear vertical stress, and many joins taper into pointed terminals, giving the letters a polished, high-fashion sparkle. Numerals and capitals follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic, maintaining a consistent, couture-like texture across the set.
Well suited to fashion and lifestyle editorial layouts, luxury branding, and elegant titling where high contrast and a graceful italic voice are desirable. It can work for short to medium text in high-quality print or large sizes, and for invitations or formal announcements where a sophisticated, calligraphic serif impression is appropriate.
The overall tone is elegant and dramatic, balancing classic bookish refinement with a runway-ready sense of sophistication. Its glossy contrast and taut italic movement feel formal and expressive, suggesting luxury branding and editorial voice rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast italic serif for sophisticated typography—prioritizing elegance, verticality, and a sleek rhythm for editorial and brand-driven settings.
In running text the thin hairlines and tight spacing tendencies can read delicate, while the strong slant and sharp terminals add energy and emphasis. The design’s narrow silhouette produces a sleek, column-like texture, and the italic construction feels intentionally display-leaning even when used in paragraphs.
