A high-contrast italic serif with sharp hairline connections and pronounced thick-to-thin modulation throughout. The letters show a strong rightward slant and a distinctly calligraphic stress, with crisp, wedge-like serifs and delicately tapered terminals. Proportions feel slightly narrow and high-waisted, with compact apertures and lively, variable rhythms between straight stems and sweeping curves. Numerals and capitals carry dramatic contrast and smooth, sculpted curves that read cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where its contrast and italic energy can be appreciated. It also fits luxury-oriented applications such as fashion layouts, branding accents, packaging copy, and formal invitations when used at sufficiently large sizes.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, evoking classic editorial typography and luxury branding. Its shimmering hairlines and confident slant give it a dramatic, poetic voice suited to sophisticated, high-style messaging.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic, high-fashion italic serif voice with strong contrast and refined detailing. It prioritizes elegance and visual drama, creating a distinctive texture that elevates short to medium-length text and statement typography.
In longer text, the sparkle of thin strokes and tight internal spaces creates a vivid texture that favors generous sizes and comfortable line spacing. The italic construction is expressive rather than understated, with prominent entry/exit strokes and energetic curves that draw attention in headings and pull quotes.
