A high-contrast italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and pointed, wedge-like serifs that create a crisp, glossy silhouette. Strokes show strong modulation and a consistent rightward slant, with long, tapering terminals and occasional teardrop-like endings. Uppercase forms are narrow and poised with sharp joins, while lowercase introduces more cursive behavior—looping descenders, a flowing single-storey “g,” and expressive entry/exit strokes. Overall spacing and rhythm feel lively and slightly variable, emphasizing vertical stress and elegant curvature over rigid text regularity.
Best suited to magazine headlines, luxury branding, and editorial typography where high contrast and italic motion can be showcased at larger sizes. It can also work well for invitations, packaging accents, and short, elegant typographic moments such as pull quotes or section openers.
The font reads as polished and upscale, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-oriented sophistication. Its sharp contrast and sweeping italics add drama and a sense of ceremony, making it feel more like a statement voice than a quiet workhorse.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion italic serif voice—balancing classic high-contrast proportions with more cursive, expressive lowercase details for a refined yet attention-grabbing presence.
Several glyphs carry display-oriented flourishes—especially in the lowercase, where descenders and terminals extend into subtle swashes that enliven word shapes. Numerals share the same contrast and italic momentum, pairing well with headlines and pull quotes where the slanted rhythm can be appreciated.
