A sharply modeled italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. Curves show a strong diagonal stress and clean, tapering terminals, while serifs are fine and precise rather than bracketed or slabbed. Capitals are tall and narrow in presence, with graceful bowls and sweeping diagonals, and the italic slant is consistent across the set. Lowercase forms are compact yet open, with a delicate rhythm created by thin entry/exit strokes and crisp joins; figures follow the same high-contrast construction and feel suited to display sizing.
Best suited for magazine and book display typography, fashion and beauty branding, pull quotes, and elegant headlines where the contrast can shine. It can also work well for invitations and other formal collateral, especially when set with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, with a couture, magazine-like sophistication. Its strong contrast and sweeping italic movement give it a dramatic, romantic edge that reads as premium and intentional rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to evoke classic high-fashion serif typography with a contemporary, razor-sharp finish. Its emphasis on contrast, italic flow, and refined detailing suggests a focus on expressive display use and premium brand voice rather than everyday long-form text.
The design relies on very fine hairlines and small details, which produce a polished, high-end texture but can become fragile at small sizes or on low-resolution output. The italic construction and narrow internal spacing create a lively, forward-moving line suitable for expressive typography.
