A very slender italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear vertical stress. Hairline serifs and terminals are sharp and clean, with long, tapered entry/exit strokes and a smooth calligraphic slant. Capitals are tall and poised with generous inner space and minimal bracketing, while the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height and narrow joins that emphasize a light, airy rhythm. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, reading crisp and delicate with fine horizontals and elegant curves.
Best suited to display and larger text where the hairlines can reproduce cleanly, such as fashion/editorial headlines, magazine typography, luxury packaging, and refined invitations. It can also work for short passages or pull quotes when printed or rendered at sizes that preserve its delicate contrast.
The overall tone is luxurious and composed, projecting a polished, editorial sophistication. Its delicate hairlines and sweeping italic movement feel fashionable and formal, lending a sense of high-end restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness.
This design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion italic voice rooted in classical high-contrast serif construction. The focus is on elegance, speed of movement, and a bright, sophisticated texture for premium typographic settings.
The slanted forms maintain consistent angle and spacing, producing a smooth typographic color that stays bright even in text. Certain letters show expressive italic detailing—such as tapered curves and refined terminals—adding personality without becoming ornamental.
