A sharply inclined serif with extreme thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapering hairlines. The letterforms show predominantly vertical stress with long, knife-like serifs and pointed terminals, giving a sleek, cut-paper precision rather than soft bracketing. Curves are tight and controlled, with narrow joins and high-contrast transitions that create a bright, sparkling texture in text. Proportions feel display-oriented: capitals are statuesque and narrow in feel, while lowercase forms show lively, calligraphic shaping and distinct entry/exit strokes that emphasize the slanted rhythm.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and branding where a refined, dramatic italic voice is desired. It can work well for posters, luxury packaging, and short pull quotes at sizes large enough to preserve the thin strokes and crisp serifs.
The overall tone is polished and high-fashion, projecting sophistication and drama through its razor-thin details and steep italic movement. It reads as premium and editorial, with a poised, theatrical elegance that feels at home in luxury contexts.
The font appears designed to deliver an expressive, high-contrast italic with a couture sensibility—prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and visual sparkle for display-led typography rather than neutral, low-contrast reading text.
The design’s delicate hairlines and sharp terminals make spacing and rhythm visually prominent, producing a dynamic, shimmering line in larger settings. Figures follow the same high-contrast, italicized logic, with curved forms and fine finishing strokes that keep the set cohesive.
