A finely drawn italic serif with a pronounced calligraphic axis and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. Letterforms are tall and narrow-leaning with generous ascenders and deep, tapered entry/exit strokes that create a lively, sweeping rhythm. Serifs are sharp and minimal, often resolving into thin points rather than heavy brackets, while joins and terminals show controlled teardrop-like modulation typical of a pen-informed construction. Numerals and capitals carry strong diagonal energy with slender cross-strokes and carefully tapered curves, producing a graceful but assertive texture in text.
Best suited to display typography where its refined hairlines and sweeping italic movement can remain crisp—such as fashion and beauty headlines, high-end branding, and magazine or book display settings. It can also work for short bursts of editorial emphasis, pull quotes, and formal invitations where an elegant, high-fashion voice is desired.
The overall tone is polished and elevated, with a couture-like elegance that feels at home in premium, style-forward contexts. Its dramatic thin-to-thick transitions and poised slant convey sophistication, romance, and a touch of theatricality without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern take on classic high-contrast italics, prioritizing elegance and motion through sharp tapering, tall proportions, and a continuous calligraphic flow. It aims to create premium, attention-grabbing typography with a light-on-its-feet texture and distinctive editorial character.
In running text the spacing reads airy and selective, with a strong emphasis on flowing diagonals and pointed terminals that sharpen the silhouette. The italic forms maintain consistent stress and tapering across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping long lines feel continuous and fluid.
