## Overview

A luxury fashion e-commerce experience blending editorial photography with refined typography and ample whitespace.

*A high-end fashion boutique with editorial photography and refined typography.*

## Colors

Strict achromatic palette dominated by pure black and white, allowing high-quality photography to carry all visual interest and brand personality.

- **Background (`#FFFFFF`)** — uses `bg` token
- **Primary text (`#000000`)** — uses `ink` token
- **Secondary text (`#222222`)** — uses `ink-soft` token
- **Muted (`#000000`)** — uses `muted` token
- **Borders (`rgba(0,0,0,0.15)`)** — uses `line` token

## Typography

- **Display:** didone-serif
- **Body:** grotesque-sans

- The brand logo 'KHAITE' uses a high-contrast didone serif (ITC Galliard) at large sizes.
- All navigation and UI text uses a clean, light grotesque sans-serif (Fakt Pro) at 12px.
- Text is frequently uppercase with generous tracking for a refined, editorial feel.
- Weight stays strictly at 350-400, avoiding bold except for very rare emphasis.

## Layout

Full-bleed hero imagery followed by a clean, centered grid layout with ample negative space between elements.

*Rhythm:* Strict 4px base grid with generous whitespace and breathing room, especially around photographic elements.

## Elevation & Depth

- Borders: Minimal, used only for subtle underlines on interactive text elements like 'Shop Now'.

## Shapes

- `sm`: 0px
- `md`: 0px
- `lg`: 0px
- `pill`: 999px

## Components

- **button:** Minimal text links with subtle underlines or borders; no solid filled buttons are visible.
- **card:** Clean, unadorned product presentation with imagery and small uppercase text labels.
- **hero:** Full-viewport photographic hero with overlaid serif headline and subtle text link call-to-action.

## Do's and Don'ts

**Don't:**
- Don't use bold, heavy typography — screenshot shows light font weights (350-400) throughout
- Don't add decorative shadows or glows — screenshot shows completely flat, clean surfaces
- Don't use colorful buttons or badges — screenshot shows only subtle text links with underlines
- Don't clutter the layout with multiple competing elements — screenshot shows generous whitespace
- Don't use rounded corners on containers — screenshot shows sharp, clean edges
- Don't use busy patterns or gradients — screenshot shows solid white and near-white backgrounds
