A sharply slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. Strokes taper to fine points, with small, clean serifs and a generally vertical stress that heightens the sculpted, high-fashion look. Capitals are narrow and poised with long, sweeping diagonals, while the lowercase shows lively curves, compact bowls, and descenders that finish in delicate hooks and teardrop-like ends. Numerals follow the same contrasty, italic rhythm, producing a tightly spaced, sparkling texture in lines of text.
Best suited to magazine and newspaper display, fashion and lifestyle headlines, and luxury-oriented branding where elegance and contrast are desirable. It also works well for short passages such as pull quotes, invitations, and premium packaging copy when set large enough for the hairlines to hold.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a dramatic, editorial sparkle that reads as modern-classic rather than casual. Its sharp contrast and forward lean convey sophistication, speed, and a touch of luxury.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast italic voice for editorial and brand-forward typography, emphasizing sharp refinement, compact elegance, and a distinctive, high-end rhythm on the page.
In paragraph settings the bright hairlines create a shimmering rhythm, and the italic angle is strong enough to function as a primary style rather than only an emphasis companion. The design favors crisp reproduction and benefits from generous size and comfortable line spacing to keep the fine details clear.
