A sharply inclined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline connecting strokes. The letterforms are compact and tightly proportioned, with tall capitals, narrow counters, and a crisp, vertical-leaning axis that reads as modern and high-contrast. Serifs are fine and clean, often lightly bracketed, and terminals tend toward pointed or tapered finishes that emphasize speed and direction. The overall rhythm is sleek and taut, with strokes that snap from heavy stems into delicate curves, producing a polished, print-oriented texture in text and display sizes.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and short bursts of text where its contrast and narrow build can create a chic, high-impact voice. It fits fashion and lifestyle publishing, luxury branding, and poster-style typographic compositions where a sophisticated italic texture is desired.
The font conveys a poised, fashion-forward sophistication with a distinctly editorial voice. Its tension between heavy stems and razor-thin hairlines creates a dramatic, luxe tone suited to premium and image-conscious contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion serif italic that prioritizes elegance and visual drama. Its narrow proportions and incisive contrast suggest a focus on editorial impact and refined branding rather than neutral, long-form text setting.
Round letters like O/Q show tight, elegant ovals with strong contrast, while diagonals (V/W/X) feel blade-like and energetic. Figures follow the same high-contrast logic, appearing stylish and slightly mannered, reinforcing the typeface’s refined, display-leaning character.
