A high-contrast italic serif with sharply tapered, hairline serifs and strong thick–thin modulation that reads as precise and polished. The letterforms lean with a smooth, continuous rhythm and show distinctly calligraphic entry/exit strokes, producing pointed terminals and occasional teardrop-like joins. Proportions run on the wider side with generous set width and open counters, while capitals present crisp, sculpted silhouettes and lowercase shows fluid curves and long, elegant extenders. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, with slanted stress and delicate finishing strokes that keep them visually consistent with the text.
Well-suited for magazine headlines, fashion and beauty identities, premium branding, and elegant packaging where contrast and italic movement can take center stage. It also works for short pull quotes, titling, and refined display settings where the crisp serifs and sculpted curves can be appreciated.
The overall tone is luxurious and editorial, projecting sophistication and a deliberately dramatic contrast. Its italic energy feels expressive yet controlled, lending a couture, magazine-like voice that suggests refinement and a touch of spectacle.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, display-forward take on the classic high-contrast italic serif: sharp, stylish, and optimized for an upscale voice. Its wide stance and clean rhythm aim to balance drama with readability in headline and editorial applications.
The design relies on fine hairlines and sharp details, so it presents best when rendered at sizes and resolutions that preserve its delicate strokes. Several forms (notably in lowercase and some capitals) carry subtle swash-like curvature and pointed finishing that accentuate motion and style.
