A high-contrast serif italic with strong thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered serifs. The letterforms lean decisively to the right and show a smooth, calligraphic stroke flow with sharp entry/exit terminals. Proportions are relatively broad with generous set width, and the curves (C, G, O, Q) are clean and polished, with small, keen beaks and hairline connections. Lowercase forms keep a controlled x-height and feature narrow joins and pointed terminals, while figures follow the same contrast and italic slant for a cohesive text color.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and high-impact editorial typography where contrast and slant can do expressive work. It also fits premium branding and packaging that benefits from a refined, fashion-forward serif italic.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, combining classical refinement with a contemporary fashion sensibility. Its steep italic angle and razor-like hairlines add energy and elegance, lending an upscale, editorial voice to short text.
The design appears intended to deliver a luxurious, high-contrast italic for display use, emphasizing elegance, motion, and sharpness while maintaining a conventional serif structure for familiar readability.
In running text, the strong diagonal rhythm and pronounced contrast create a lively texture; spacing appears intentionally open to support the wide proportions. The design relies on delicate hairlines and sharp details, which read best when given enough size and printing/rendering quality to preserve fine strokes.
