Jeddah Progress - Mannequins with Heads!


If you've read my blog for a while, you know that I have highlighted the existence of headless mannequins in Saudi Arabia for quite some time.  Well, times are changin'!!!


Women are driving! Movie theaters have arrived! Women are working in all sectors! The country has opened up for tourism! And mannequins in Saudi Arabia have been reunited with their heads now!


The rapid changes happening have been most welcome and almost mind boggling.  I never quite understood many of the restrictions before, although I tried to make sense of it all.  All this amazing change is rather a relief actually... big sigh!

OK ... But Where Are the Heads?


Yes, headless mannequins in shop windows are a common thing here in Saudi Arabia.  I have to wonder if one can order headless mannequins, or if they have to order the complete mannequin with the head.  And if so, what do they do with the heads then?


Some of these mannequins actually have a silver cap at the neck - but not all of them do...
