A high-contrast italic serif with a condensed stance and pronounced diagonal stress. Strokes alternate between hairline-thin connectors and sharper, heavier terminals that often flare or taper into wedge-like endings rather than blunt slabs. Curves are smoothly drawn and slightly calligraphic, with crisp apexes and narrow internal counters that create a taut, vertical rhythm. The overall color is lively and flickering, with consistent slant and a distinctly sculpted, chiseled finish at many stroke ends.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, and luxury-oriented branding where its contrast and condensed rhythm can read cleanly at larger sizes. It also works well for pull quotes, covers, and short titling where the italic motion adds emphasis without needing additional styling.
The tone reads polished and upscale, with a dramatic, fashion-forward energy. Its brisk contrast and narrow proportions feel assertive and stylish, leaning toward classic editorial sophistication rather than casual warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, high-fashion italic voice: condensed for economy and impact, with flared terminals and sharp finishing details that heighten elegance and drama in display settings.
Uppercase forms appear tall and streamlined with sharp joins and compact bowls, while the lowercase maintains a controlled, literary italic flow. Numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and pointed finishing strokes that reinforce the font’s refined, display-leaning personality.
