A very thin, italic serif with crisp, unbracketed slab terminals that read as small flat caps on stems and arms. Curves are smooth and near-monoline, with restrained modulation and open counters that keep the texture light. Proportions feel classical yet streamlined: rounded letters are generously drawn, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) are sharply cut and narrow at the joins, producing a clean, high-precision rhythm. Numerals are similarly slender and elegant, with simple, linear construction that matches the letterforms.
Best suited to display typography where its delicate strokes and refined italic stance can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, high-end packaging, and invitation suites. It can work for short passages or pull quotes when set with generous size and leading to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is poised and sophisticated, with a quiet fashion/editorial sensibility. Its hairline presence and steady italic slant suggest elegance and restraint rather than emphasis, lending a premium, modern-classic feel.
The design appears intended to combine the sophistication of an italic serif with the crisp, graphic punctuation of slab terminals, creating a modern, couture-leaning voice that stays minimal and controlled. It prioritizes finesse and visual lightness over robust, small-size text utility.
In text, the spacing and open forms create an especially luminous, high-key page color. The slabbed terminals add a subtle graphic edge that keeps the design from feeling overly calligraphic, while the consistently fine strokes make it most at home at larger sizes or in high-contrast printing contexts.
