A sharply slanted serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline serifs. Strokes taper into pointed terminals and long, flowing entry/exit strokes, giving the letters a calligraphic, pen-driven feel. Capitals are stately and open with crisp, bracketed serifs, while the lowercase shows lively cursive shaping—noticeably in the a, f, g, k, and y—with generous curves and asymmetrical, forward-leaning forms. Numerals echo the same contrast and finesse, with fine joins and delicate finishing strokes.
Well-suited to magazine and book display typography, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and refined invitations or announcements. It shines in larger sizes where the delicate hairlines and tapered terminals can be appreciated, and works best when used for short passages, pull quotes, or prominent titling.
The overall tone is luxurious and dramatic, with a distinctly editorial polish. Its sweeping italics and razor-thin details convey sophistication and a fashion-forward sensibility, leaning more expressive than strictly utilitarian.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-contrast italic serif voice that balances classical letterform structure with expressive, calligraphic motion. Its primary intent is to add elegance and visual drama to display typography while maintaining a recognizable, traditional serif foundation.
The design emphasizes rhythm and movement through consistent rightward momentum and elongated terminals, creating a continuous, flowing texture in setting. Fine serifs and thin connections are a defining visual feature, especially in tighter counters and joins, which contributes to a crisp, high-end look.
