A high-contrast serif with a pronounced italic slope and a distinctly display-driven rhythm. Thick, sculpted main strokes are paired with extremely fine hairlines, producing sharp light–dark transitions and crisp internal counters. Serifs are small, tapered, and often slightly bracketing into the stems, with pointed terminals and refined finishing details. The overall drawing feels energetic and forward-leaning, with broad letterforms and generous curves that give capitals a stately presence while keeping lowercase forms lively and fluid.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine and lookbook typography, and brand-led applications where elegance and contrast are an asset. It can add a premium tone to packaging and promotional materials, and works especially well for short to medium text settings where the italic energy and hairline detail can be appreciated.
The font projects a polished, upscale tone with a strong sense of drama. Its glossy contrast and sweeping italic movement feel fashion-forward and editorial, balancing classical refinement with a confident, attention-grabbing voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif voice—combining classic high-contrast construction with an assertive italic stance for expressive display typography and sophisticated branding.
In running text the hairlines and tight joins create a sparkling texture that reads best when given enough size and printing/display clarity. Numerals and capitals carry a particularly theatrical weight, while the lowercase maintains a smooth, calligraphic flow that emphasizes motion and emphasis.
