A sharply contrasted italic serif with a pronounced vertical axis, thick main strokes, and extremely fine hairlines. The forms are narrow and streamlined, with long, clean entry/exit strokes and crisp, unbracketed serifs that taper to points. Curves are taut and polished, counters stay relatively compact, and the overall rhythm is fast and elegant, with noticeable calligraphic movement in the lowercase and strong, sculpted capitals.
Best suited for display settings such as magazine titles, fashion spreads, luxury branding, premium packaging, and elegant posters. It can work for short pull quotes or lead-ins at larger sizes, but the fine hairlines and tight counters benefit from generous sizing, careful tracking, and high-quality output.
The typeface projects a high-fashion, editorial sophistication—cool, poised, and intentionally dramatic. Its sharp contrast and sweeping italic cadence convey luxury and precision, with a distinctly modern, runway-ready attitude rather than a casual or rustic warmth.
Designed to deliver a quintessential high-contrast italic look: glamorous, precise, and attention-grabbing. The narrow proportions and razor-thin detailing suggest an intention to create strong vertical elegance and a couture-like finish for modern editorial and brand applications.
Round letters like O/Q show clean, high-contrast ovals with delicate terminals, while diagonals and joins stay crisp and controlled. Numerals share the same refined contrast and italic slant, reading best when given space so the hairlines and pointed details can remain clear.
