A very delicate serif with strong thick–thin modulation and a distinctly vertical rhythm. Strokes are predominantly straight and taut, with fine hairlines, sharp bracketless serifs, and smooth, controlled curves in the bowls. Proportions read narrow and tall, with small counters and a crisp, high-fashion sheen; joins and terminals are clean and minimally sculpted. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, slender f and t, and a deep-descending q, while figures are similarly thin and refined, emphasizing an overall light, precise texture.
Best suited to display typography where the thin hairlines and contrast can remain clear—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty identities, premium packaging, event invitations, and elegant pull quotes. It can also work for short passages in high-quality print or large sizes where its refined texture and tight proportions are an asset.
The tone is polished and formal, leaning toward luxury and editorial sophistication. Its lightness and high contrast create an airy, upscale feel that suggests fashion, culture, and premium branding rather than utilitarian body text.
The design appears intended to evoke a classic, high-end editorial serif with a modern, pared-back construction. It prioritizes elegance, contrast, and verticality to create a sophisticated voice for titles and brand-forward typography.
In setting, the font produces a bright page color with pronounced sparkle from the hairlines and fine serifs, especially at larger sizes. Round forms (C, O, Q, e) stay smooth and restrained, while diagonal letters (V, W, X, Y) appear sharp and chiseled, reinforcing a sleek, contemporary-classic impression.
