A high-contrast italic serif with razor-thin hairlines and sharp, tapered serifs. Letterforms lean with a consistent rightward slant and a smooth, calligraphic rhythm, showing delicate entry/exit strokes and pronounced thick–thin transitions on curves and diagonals. Capitals are relatively tall and poised, while the lowercase stays compact with flowing joins and narrow counters. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with elegant curves and thin terminals that keep the texture airy and bright at larger sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, and high-end branding where its contrast and italic energy can read cleanly. It also works well for short passages like pull quotes, title pages, and invitations, especially when set with generous size and comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, with a distinctly editorial sophistication. Its sharp contrast and sweeping italics create a dramatic, couture-like presence that feels premium and expressive rather than utilitarian.
This design appears aimed at delivering a classic, high-fashion italic serif voice—prioritizing elegance, contrast, and expressive stroke modulation for premium display typography and refined editorial composition.
The italic construction emphasizes movement through long, tapering strokes (notably in letters like f, g, and y), and the internal spaces remain open enough to preserve clarity despite the extreme hairlines. The texture in paragraphs reads as lively and sparkling, with strong vertical accents and delicate connecting strokes.
