A very delicate italic with razor-thin strokes and crisp, square-ended slab serifs that read as small, flat terminals rather than rounded brackets. The design shows a pronounced forward slant and a lively, calligraphic rhythm, with narrow joins and tapered curves that keep counters open despite the light weight. Capitals are tall and poised with long, clean diagonals (notably in V/W/X) and graceful, slightly extended forms; the uppercase Q features a distinctive sweeping tail. The lowercase is similarly refined, with single-storey a and g, long ascenders/descenders, and fine, needle-like entry/exit strokes that create an airy texture in text.
Well suited to fashion branding, magazine and book typography, refined invitations, and display headlines where its thin strokes and italic energy can read clearly. It can also work for short, airy subheads or pull quotes when set with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, leaning toward editorial sophistication rather than utilitarian neutrality. Its thin, sharply cut details and fluent italic movement evoke fashion, literature, and classical refinement, giving text an understated, luxurious cadence.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion italic voice with crisp slab-serifs and a calligraphic flow, prioritizing elegance and gesture over ruggedness or heavy emphasis. Its consistent hairline construction and sharp terminals suggest a focus on refined display and editorial settings.
The hairline build and sharp serifs make spacing and line rhythm especially noticeable; in longer passages it produces a light, sparkling color with prominent diagonals and elegant swash-like tails on select letters (such as Q and y). Numerals follow the same slender, stylized approach, with curved forms (2, 3, 5, 9) feeling particularly graceful and display-oriented.
