A slender, hairline-driven display face with tall, condensed proportions and pronounced stroke modulation. Stems often end in soft flares and tapered terminals, producing a hand-drawn, calligraphic feel without connected script joins. Curves are smooth and elongated, counters are narrow, and the rhythm is vertical and spacious, giving text a light, floating presence. Numerals and capitals share the same elongated architecture, with occasional exaggerated curves and asymmetric finishing that reinforce an organic, drawn character.
Best suited for display settings such as headlines, editorial pull quotes, magazine mastheads, boutique branding, and packaging where its tall elegance can be appreciated. It can work for short text lines at larger sizes, especially when paired with a sturdier companion for body copy.
The tone is refined yet playful—like hand-lettering made for upscale contexts, mixing poise with a touch of eccentricity. Its airy thinness reads as graceful and fashion-oriented, while the slightly irregular, flared endings keep it informal and personable.
The design appears intended to deliver a hand-drawn, fashion-leaning display voice: narrow, elongated shapes with dramatic contrast and refined finishing that emphasize sophistication while maintaining an informal, written feel.
Because strokes are extremely thin and the letterforms are tightly built, the font relies on size and generous spacing to stay clear. The most distinctive personality comes from its tall silhouettes and taper-to-flare terminal treatment, which gives words a stylized, boutique look.
