A high-contrast italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and pronounced thick-to-thin transitions. The design uses sharp, clean terminals and fine, bracketed serifs that feel etched rather than heavy, with a consistent rightward slant and lively, calligraphic stress. Uppercase forms are narrow and poised with long, tapering diagonals, while the lowercase shows crisp joins and occasional teardrop-like terminals on letters such as a, f, j, and y. Figures are similarly contrasty and stylized, with delicate curves and thin entry/exit strokes that keep the texture light and sparkling at display sizes.
Best used for headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other prominent typography where fine hairlines can be appreciated. It fits fashion and lifestyle editorial design, premium branding, event collateral, and invitation work, and can also serve as an italic accent paired with a calmer text serif in longer compositions.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, projecting a classic editorial sophistication with a touch of theatrical drama. Its sheen and sharpness read as fashion-forward and formal, suited to situations where elegance and contrast are meant to be noticed.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of classic high-contrast italics, prioritizing sparkle, refinement, and dramatic emphasis over utilitarian small-size robustness.
Spacing and rhythm create a bright page color, with thin connective strokes that can visually fade at small sizes, emphasizing its display orientation. The italic construction is assertive, with energetic curves and angled finishing strokes that give words a fast, luxurious sweep.
