A high-contrast italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and swelling main strokes that create a sharp, elegant rhythm. Serifs are fine and tapered, with pointed terminals and occasional wedge-like entries that emphasize the slanted, calligraphic construction. Counters are generous and round in letters like C, O, and Q, while diagonals and joins stay tight and clean, giving the face a polished, fashion-forward texture. The figures and capitals show pronounced thick–thin modulation, producing a sparkling page color at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and short passages where high contrast and italic motion can shine. It will work especially well for magazine and fashion layouts, luxury branding, cosmetic or fragrance packaging, and elegant event materials such as invitations and programs.
The tone is sophisticated and dramatic, balancing delicacy with assertive stroke contrast. It reads as couture and editorial—suited to premium, image-led contexts where elegance and flair matter more than plain neutrality.
Designed to deliver a classic serif foundation with a distinctly editorial italic voice—prioritizing glamour, contrast, and refined detail for display typography. The overall construction suggests an intent to evoke traditional calligraphic stress while maintaining the crisp discipline of a modern catalog serif.
The italic angle is prominent and consistent, with lively entry strokes and sharp finishing details that keep letterforms energetic without becoming ornate. At smaller sizes, the very fine hairlines and compact joins may require careful sizing and contrast management in print or on screen.
