A very delicate italic serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. The design leans on long, flowing entry and exit strokes, with sharp wedge-like serifs and fine hairlines that create an airy page color. Curves are smooth and slightly tensioned, and the overall rhythm is lively and slanted, with narrow joins and a distinctly graceful, high-fashion silhouette. Uppercase forms feel tall and poised, while the lowercase maintains a controlled, elegant cursive structure with generous ascenders and refined bowls.
Best suited to display and headline settings where its high contrast and fine hairlines can be appreciated—magazine titles, luxury branding, invitations, and book or album covers. It can also work for short, elegant text passages or pull quotes when set with ample size and comfortable spacing.
The font conveys sophistication and polish, with a sense of luxury and editorial restraint. Its light touch and pronounced contrast feel formal and cultured, leaning more toward fashion and literature than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast italic voice with a contemporary cleanliness—prioritizing elegance, motion, and visual sparkle over robustness in small sizes.
The numerals and capitals follow the same hairline-and-stem contrast, producing a bright, sparkling texture at larger sizes. The italic construction is consistent across the set, emphasizing sweeping diagonals and tapered stroke endings that read as precise rather than rustic.
