A high-contrast italic serif with strongly tapered strokes and crisp, wedge-like terminals. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with a pronounced diagonal stress that produces a lively, shimmering rhythm across words. Uppercase forms feel compact and sculpted, while the lowercase shows a more calligraphic flow with narrow joins, pointed entry/exit strokes, and energetic diagonals. Numerals follow the same contrast model, mixing sturdy main stems with hairline cross-strokes and sharp terminals for a distinctly display-oriented texture.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, and short editorial passages where its contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It also works well for branding, packaging, and event or cultural posters that need a refined but attention-grabbing serif voice.
The overall tone is refined and theatrical, combining classical serif cues with a fashion-editorial swagger. Its sharp transitions and steep slant read confident and luxurious, with a slightly showy, high-impact presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion interpretation of a traditional italic serif: elegant structure paired with sharp, high-contrast detailing for display impact and editorial sophistication.
In longer lines the strong contrast and angled stress create a vivid pattern that can feel busy at smaller sizes, while at larger sizes the fine hairlines and razor terminals become a defining feature. The italic construction is assertive, with prominent diagonals in letters like v/w/x and a distinctly swept, dynamic feel in round forms.
