A high-contrast italic serif with sharp hairline serifs and swelling, tapered main strokes that create a dramatic thick–thin rhythm. The letterforms are narrow to moderate in footprint with lively, calligraphic construction—curved entries, pointed terminals, and slightly teardrop-like finishing on some strokes. Counters are relatively open, and the overall texture alternates between dense darks and very fine connecting strokes, giving the face a crisp, polished look at display sizes.
This font suits magazine typography, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and statement headlines where contrast and elegance are assets. It performs especially well in larger sizes for titles, pull quotes, and short passages where the italic flow can be appreciated without hairlines breaking down.
The tone is poised and luxurious, leaning toward fashion and editorial sophistication. Its sweeping italic motion and razor-thin details read as formal, premium, and a bit theatrical rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern classic italic serif with strong editorial flair—combining traditional high-contrast construction with crisp, contemporary refinement for impactful display typography.
The italic slant is pronounced and consistent, with distinctive, gestural capitals and numerals that echo the same sharp, high-contrast logic. Fine details (hairlines and serifs) are visually prominent, so the face’s character is driven by precision and delicacy as much as by stroke weight.
