A very slender italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, tapered terminals. Strokes feel drawn with a flexible pointed tool: joins are clean, curves are smooth, and serifs are small and knife-like rather than bracketed. Proportions are tall and compact, with a brisk rightward slant, narrow counters, and a slightly lively baseline rhythm that keeps forms from feeling mechanical. In text, the italics maintain consistent contrast and spacing, creating an even, luminous texture despite the hairline details.
Best suited for display typography where its hairline strokes and contrast can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, elegant branding, and short editorial callouts. It can also work for brief text passages in high-quality print or larger on-screen sizes where fine details remain clear.
The overall tone is poised and cultivated, leaning toward luxury and editorial sophistication. Its lightness and crisp contrast convey delicacy and exclusivity, while the energetic italic movement adds a sense of grace and momentum.
The design appears intended to provide a modern, fashion-forward italic within a conventional serif framework, prioritizing elegance, contrast, and a smooth reading rhythm in larger sizes. It aims to deliver a refined editorial voice with a distinctly graceful, calligraphic slant.
Uppercase letters read as statuesque and formal, while the lowercase shows more calligraphic nuance with tapered entry/exit strokes and compact apertures. Numerals match the same refined contrast and slanted stance, staying consistent with the type’s airy color.
