A high-contrast italic serif with sharp, tapered hairlines and strong thick–thin modulation throughout. The capitals are narrow-to-moderate in proportion with pointed, chiseled terminals and crisp serifs that read as unbracketed and clean. Lowercase forms are lively and slanted, showing flowing entry/exit strokes, teardrop-like terminals, and a rhythmic, calligraphic cadence; counters stay relatively open despite the contrast. Numerals follow the same dramatic modulation, with curved figures showing pronounced stress and delicate joins that emphasize a polished, print-oriented texture.
Best suited to display sizes where the fine hairlines and sharp details can remain clear: magazine headlines, pull quotes, fashion and beauty packaging, luxury branding, and high-impact posters. It can work for short runs of text when generously sized and spaced, but its contrast and italic momentum naturally favor titles and emphasis over dense body copy.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, with a distinctly editorial feel. Its dramatic contrast and sweeping italic energy convey sophistication, formality, and a touch of theatrical flair, making it feel at home in fashion and cultural contexts.
This design appears intended to deliver a refined, high-fashion italic voice built around dramatic contrast and crisp, modernized serif detailing. The emphasis is on elegance and movement, creating a distinctive headline style that feels premium and image-led.
In text, the strong slant and sharp terminals create a sparkling, high-frequency texture—especially where hairlines intersect or taper into points. The italic construction feels continuous and deliberately stylized rather than merely obliqued, with prominent swashes and curled terminals on several lowercase forms that add personality.
