A high-contrast serif with broad, weighty main strokes paired with hairline connections and sharp, tapered serifs. The letterforms are compact in their counters and feel high-waisted, with a pronounced thick–thin rhythm that reads crisply at large sizes. Serifs tend toward triangular, slightly flared shapes with subtle bracketing, and several glyphs show teardrop/ball-like terminals (notably in the lowercase). The overall construction is upright and formal, with robust caps and a lively, slightly calligraphic modulation in curves and joins.
Best suited for headlines, decks, and large-format typography where the high contrast and fine serifs can stay clean. It works especially well for magazine/editorial layouts, luxury branding, beauty or fashion packaging, and striking poster or cover typography that benefits from a refined yet dramatic serif presence.
The tone is polished and theatrical, combining classical book-seriff authority with fashion-forward contrast. It suggests prestige and ceremony—confident, attention-grabbing, and well suited to moments where the typography should feel expensive and intentional rather than neutral.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, high-fashion take on a traditional serif: strong vertical emphasis, elegant hairlines, and sculpted terminals that create a premium, editorial look while maintaining recognizable, conventional serif structures.
In text settings the heavy verticals and delicate hairlines create a strong sparkle, and the punctuation and numerals carry the same sharp, sculpted contrast. Curved letters (like C, G, S, and the round lowercase) emphasize dramatic swelling and thinning, giving the face a distinctive editorial voice.
