A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear vertical stress. Hairline serifs and fine joins create a crisp, polished texture, while the italic construction leans with a steady rhythm and tapered, wedge-like entry/exit strokes. Capitals feel tall and sculptural, with sharp apexes and long, delicate finishing strokes; lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with narrow counters and lively curves. Numerals echo the same contrast and angled motion, pairing sturdy main strokes with very thin cross-strokes and terminals.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, luxury brand marks, invitations, and high-end packaging. It can also work for short pull quotes or section openers where its contrast and italic energy can be appreciated without hairline loss.
The overall tone is luxurious and fashion-forward, balancing classic bookish elegance with a more theatrical, high-style flourish. Its sharp hairlines and sweeping italic movement give it a dramatic, curated feel suited to premium branding and expressive headlines.
Designed to deliver a modern-didone-like sense of refinement: extreme contrast, precise hairlines, and a confident italic cadence that elevates tone and hierarchy. The letterforms prioritize elegance and impact over neutrality, aiming for a premium, editorial presence.
Stroke contrast is extreme enough that small sizes may appear fragile in lighter parts, especially in tight word shapes where hairlines cluster. The italic has a consistent, disciplined slant rather than a casual handwritten tilt, and spacing reads intentionally airy, helping the forms breathe despite the strong contrast.
