Modern / Didone fonts
Modern, or Didone, serifs push stroke contrast to the extreme: fat verticals meet hairline serifs and thins, on a strictly vertical stress. Born around 1800 with Bodoni and Didot, they read as elegant and glamorous, which is why they define the look of fashion magazines and luxury brands.
