A decorative outline serif with hairline contours and a strong inline/inner contour that creates a hollow, double-stroke effect. Letterforms are built from tall, elegant proportions with crisp wedge-like serifs and delicate curves, while the bowls and counters often read as layered outlines rather than filled strokes. Curves are smooth and round, terminals are precise, and the overall texture stays airy and refined, with more visual emphasis on contour than mass. Numerals and lowercase show the same outlined construction, with occasional swash-like or looped details in descenders and terminals.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, brand marks, beauty and fragrance packaging, event invitations, theatrical posters, and boutique signage where the outlined detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or chapter openers when set with generous size and spacing.
The font conveys a polished, high-fashion tone—dramatic but controlled—evoking boutique luxury, classic signage, and editorial display typography. Its thin, open construction feels refined and ceremonial, with a hint of vintage glamour.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classic high-contrast serif through an outlined, inline construction, prioritizing elegance and decorative presence over small-size text utility. The consistent hollow contour language suggests a deliberate focus on glamorous display typography for branding and editorial environments.
Because the design relies on extremely fine outlines and interior contours, it reads best at larger sizes where the hollow detailing remains clear. In dense paragraphs or small UI sizes, the light contour weight and internal lines can visually merge or lose clarity, especially in tightly spaced contexts.
