A delicate serif with razor-thin hairlines and sharply controlled thick strokes, producing a crisp, high-fashion rhythm. Serifs are fine and pointed, with smooth, polished joins and a generally vertical stress that keeps counters clean and open. Curves are drawn with a sculpted, calligraphic precision (notably in round letters and the numerals), while capitals feel tall and stately with generous interior space. Overall spacing reads measured and poised, supporting large-size clarity and a calm, airy texture in display settings.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, luxury packaging, and refined invitations where its sharp contrast can shine. It also works for short subheads and pull quotes when set with generous spacing and comfortable line breaks.
The tone is polished and upscale, with a runway/editorial sensibility that feels composed, modern-classical, and premium. Its sharp contrasts and minimal hairlines convey sophistication and restraint, leaning more toward glamour and ceremony than warmth or casualness.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary, couture-style serif voice with classic proportions and modern precision, prioritizing elegance and striking contrast for high-impact display typography.
The design shows confident, controlled details—fine terminals, narrow hairline connections, and smooth, continuous curves—creating an intentionally delicate presence. In the sample text, the thin strokes and tight contrast produce a luminous, high-end look that benefits from ample size and breathing room.
