A very slender, monoline sans with a consistent rightward slant and generous internal spacing. Curves are drawn with smooth, oval geometry and open apertures, while joins and terminals stay crisp and unadorned. Proportions are compact and tall, producing a light, linear rhythm; round characters (C, O, Q) read as slightly condensed ellipses, and the overall texture remains even and refined in both upper- and lowercase.
Best suited to display and short-to-medium text settings where a refined, lightweight tone is desired—magazine headings, pull quotes, fashion/beauty branding, and elegant packaging. It can work for UI accents or labels when set with ample size and spacing to preserve its delicate stroke presence.
The font conveys a quiet, polished sophistication—light on the page, calm, and modern. Its soft oval curves and restrained construction feel fashion-forward and editorial, with a subtle handwritten energy coming from the consistent slant rather than decorative detailing.
The design appears intended to deliver a sleek, modern sans voice with an italicized, high-fashion sensibility—prioritizing elegance, economy of form, and a smooth, continuous rhythm across lines.
The uppercase set is especially streamlined, with simplified structures and minimal optical fuss, giving headings a sleek, architectural feel. In text, the light strokes and open forms keep the color bright, but the thin build suggests it will be most effective where reproduction is clean and sizes are not too small.
