A high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a distinctly calligraphic construction. Strokes alternate between hairline joins and strong main stems, with sharp, tapered terminals and fine, bracketed serifs that stay delicate at the ends. The overall rhythm is narrow and forward-leaning, with compact counters and a lively diagonal stress; uppercase forms feel formal and sculpted while the lowercase is more fluid and pen-like. Numerals match the italic flow, showing curved entries, thin hairline details, and a consistent contrast pattern.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other display contexts where the contrast and italic motion can be appreciated. It can also support refined branding applications and cover typography, especially when set with comfortable leading and enough size to protect the hairline details.
The tone is refined and theatrical, evoking fashion editorial typography and classic bookish elegance. Its crisp hairlines and sweeping italic movement convey sophistication and a sense of cultivated tradition rather than casual informality.
Likely designed to provide a classic, high-fashion italic voice within a conventional serif framework—combining traditional letterform structure with a dramatic, calligraphic slant for expressive typography.
In text, the tight spacing and steep italic angle create a continuous cursive texture, while the very thin connecting strokes and serifs add sparkle at display sizes. Curved letters (like C, S, and O) emphasize the diagonal stress, and the overall design reads as deliberately stylized rather than purely utilitarian.
