Etymology
The term 'glamour' has its roots in the Scottish word 'gramarye,' which means magic or enchantment. In the 18th century, it evolved into 'glamour' in English, referring to an alluring and mysterious beauty. The suffix '-ized' is a common English morphological pattern used to form verbs meaning 'to make' or 'to render,' thus 'glamourized' essentially conveys the act of infusing glamour. The usage of this term increased significantly with the rise of visual media, particularly in relation to fashion and lifestyle, where the presentation of images often involves an element of glamour. As society has become more image-conscious, particularly through platforms like Instagram and Pinterest, the act of glamourizing one's life, appearance, and experiences has become more prevalent.
