The story behind the SS19 collection entitled ‘ My Relationship ’ originated as a social
commentary about the common issues faced by relationships in the digital, phone
obssesed age today. The ever-changing technology being offered to us makes it
convenient for couples to become easily connected and also, disconnected from one
another.
Technology has turned into an important third wheel when establishing romantic
relationships today. The dizzying array of apps, websites and notifications continues to
blow up our smartphones as we continue to indulge ourselves, falling further into a void of
habitual technological dependency.
A problematic issue that majority of today’s couples struggle with most is the inherently unspoken ethics of smart phones usage during dates.
Although, the only problem that persists throughout was her partner’s tendency to be
attached to his mobile phone throughout their dates. It was the least romantic aspect of the
relationship. Glancez’s SS19 collection wants to brings you on a journey on how both the
couple manages to decide on the ultimatum by navigating their way through the obstacles
of the digital world.
