A high-contrast italic serif with crisp hairlines and broad, tapering main strokes that create a strong thick–thin rhythm. Serifs are fine and sharply pointed, with many terminals finishing in angled wedges that reinforce a fast, calligraphic slant. The letterforms are relatively wide with open counters and a smooth, flowing baseline movement; curves are polished and slightly theatrical, especially in the round capitals and the more looped lowercase. Numerals follow the same italic stress and contrast, with sculpted shapes and delicate finishing details.
Well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, and magazine-style typography where contrast and italic motion can be appreciated. It can support premium branding, packaging, and invitations, and also works for short to moderate text settings when ample size and spacing preserve the fine details.
The overall tone is refined and assertive, pairing classic luxury with a fashion-forward, editorial energy. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italics read as sophisticated and expressive rather than purely utilitarian, lending a sense of ceremony and flair to text.
The font appears designed to deliver a classic, high-fashion italic voice with strong thick–thin drama and refined finishing. Its wide proportions and emphatic stroke modulation suggest an intention to stand out in editorial and brand contexts while maintaining a traditional serif foundation.
The design shows a consistent diagonal stress across bowls and joins, and the punctuation and ampersand carry the same sharp, ornamental finishing. At larger sizes the hairlines and pointed serifs become a defining feature, emphasizing a polished, display-oriented character.
