A sharply slanted serif with extreme stroke modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The forms show a distinct diagonal stress and a sculpted, calligraphic rhythm, with thick verticals contrasted by very thin joins and terminals. Serifs are fine and pointed rather than bracketed, and many characters end in tapered, blade-like finishes. The lowercase is compact with a moderate x-height, while ascenders and capitals feel tall and commanding; overall spacing reads tight-to-compact, emphasizing a sleek, high-fashion texture.
Best suited to display roles such as editorial headlines, magazine styling, fashion and beauty branding, luxury labels, and high-impact posters. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes when set generously, but the very thin strokes suggest avoiding long passages or very small sizes where detail could be lost.
The face projects a polished, upscale tone with a dramatic, runway-style flair. Its steep italic angle and razor-thin details add energy and sophistication, creating a sense of luxury and assertiveness rather than softness or neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on high-contrast italic serif styling, prioritizing glamour, sharpness, and visual drama. Its slanted, calligraphic construction and hairline finishing aim to create standout typography for premium, image-forward applications.
In the samples, the combination of heavy main strokes and delicate hairlines creates a sparkling texture that works best when the fine details have enough size to hold. The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and sharp terminals that visually match the letters.
