A high-contrast italic serif with broad proportions and a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Strokes transition sharply between hairline links and robust verticals, with wedge-like, flaring terminals and crisp, finely tapered serifs that feel more cut than blunt. The italic angle is assertive and consistent, producing forward motion, while the spacing stays open enough to keep large sizes airy. Counters are generous and mostly rounded, and the joins and curves show a smooth, polished drawing that emphasizes thin connecting strokes and strong main stems.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, campaign posters, and premium packaging where contrast and italic movement can be showcased. It can work for short bursts of text (decks, pull quotes, and large-size captions), but the fine hairlines suggest using it at comfortable sizes with adequate contrast in print or on screen.
The overall tone is luxurious and dramatic, projecting a contemporary editorial polish with a hint of classic fashion typography. Its sharp contrast and sweeping italic forms feel confident and high-end, suited to expressive, attention-grabbing settings rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, upscale italic voice built around extreme stroke contrast, sculpted serifs, and flared terminals. It prioritizes expressive silhouette and editorial sophistication, creating a distinctive texture that elevates titles and brand statements.
Uppercase forms read as stately and sculpted, with prominent diagonal energy in letters like V, W, X, and Y. The lowercase shows a slightly more text-like texture, but the hairlines remain delicate and the terminals stay pointed, so it maintains a display-forward character. Numerals follow the same contrast model with crisp curves and fine entry/exit strokes.
