A sharply inclined serif italic with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, needle-like hairlines. The letterforms show vertical stress and long, tapering entry/exit strokes, with delicate unbracketed serifs and finely pointed terminals. Proportions feel tall and poised, with narrow joins, compact bowls, and a smooth, continuous italic rhythm across both cases. Numerals and capitals maintain the same sleek contrast and refined detailing, producing a polished, high-end texture in text.
Best suited to fashion and lifestyle layouts, luxury branding, magazine headlines, and pull quotes where its contrast can be appreciated at larger sizes. It also works well for short display lines—titles, invitations, and elegant packaging copy—where the refined italic cadence adds emphasis without needing additional decoration.
The overall tone is sophisticated and luxurious, with a distinctly editorial glamour. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italic motion give it a cultured, romantic feel that reads as premium and fashion-forward.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern high-contrast italic with a couture sensibility—prioritizing elegance, sharp detailing, and expressive slant for premium display typography.
In running text the hairlines create a shimmering, airy color, while the heavier strokes anchor the line with strong vertical accents. The italic construction is consistent and assertive, so spacing and word shapes appear lively and directional rather than neutral.
