A delicate italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, razor-fine hairlines, and crisp, unbracketed serifs. The letterforms are narrow and steeply slanted, with a vertical-stress feel in the rounds and sharp, tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and controlled, while joins and entry strokes are kept minimal, producing an airy rhythm and lots of white space at text sizes. Numerals and capitals follow the same refined contrast, with long, clean diagonals and a generally tall, stately posture.
This font is well suited to magazine headlines, display typography, pull quotes, and upscale branding where a refined italic voice is desired. It will also work for short-form editorial text at larger sizes, especially in print or other high-quality rendering environments where hairlines can remain crisp.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, projecting sophistication and drama rather than neutrality. Its thin hairlines and sharp detailing evoke luxury publishing, perfume and fashion branding, and classic European editorial typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, fashion-forward take on a classic high-contrast italic serif: slender proportions, sharp finishing, and a smooth calligraphic cadence. It prioritizes elegance and visual drama, aiming for a premium look in display and editorial contexts.
In the sample text, the extreme contrast and fine details read best when given generous size and line spacing; the italic movement is a defining trait, creating a continuous, flowing texture across words. The design emphasizes elegance over robustness, with a light touch in counters and very thin connecting strokes that reward high-resolution output.
