A delicate serif with hairline-thin strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The letterforms show sharp, clean terminals and fine, bracketless-looking serifs, with a tall cap height and a notably small x-height that emphasizes ascenders and descenders. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are open, and spacing feels measured, giving text a light, bright texture. Numerals and capitals keep a poised, display-forward rhythm with crisp vertical stress and minimal stroke swelling.
Well suited to fashion and luxury branding, magazine titling, and elegant headline work where its contrast and hairline details can shine. It can also support short-form editorial text, pull quotes, and refined invitations or programs, particularly when set with generous size and leading.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a fashion/editorial sensibility. Its whisper-thin details and crisp contrast convey sophistication and restraint, leaning toward a classic, formal voice rather than a casual or utilitarian one.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast reading of classical serif conventions, prioritizing elegance, vertical poise, and a bright page color. Its proportions and fine detailing suggest an emphasis on display and editorial settings where refinement and sophistication are key.
At larger sizes the fine hairlines and sharp joins read especially clean, while in continuous text the small x-height and delicate serifs create an airy, refined color. The italics are not shown; all samples present a consistent upright, high-contrast roman with carefully controlled curves and slender proportions.
