Agreed with many below. At the same time I put questions on the why of the "dence of flower" woman with the note in her hand. Is this suppose to be a cashpoint or was she that lucky to have found the note among the clothes?

the two people appear intimidated by the presence of camera while they are occupied at market...I feel it is a joy when people in public enjoy being present for the image...I am not saying that these two ladies are not expressing, they look supervised and diligent...the other expressions are all also molded by some nature of being compelled...their 'class' unity is a clever photographic assemblage and shows the compassionate perception in the artist.

4/3/2 in that order starting at the top...like an invisible geometric leading line to the subjects at the forground...genius. K

Fashion is a language of signs, symbols and iconography that non-verbally communicates meanings about individuals and groups. In this context it ´s very interesting to see the different styles of fashion in you picture: The formal style of the models on the wall, the casual style of the dummies and the "free style" on the living. Like the mathematical harmony 4:3:2! For perfection 1 customer is needed! ;-)
Your artistic eye catched the right moment!

Three rows:)) Perfect eye and contrast between the dolls and these two vendors.
And very good tight frame.

****Talk about layers! Three rows of women, with each row doing its own thing. Rich in incongruity, this complex photograph juxtaposes a pair of live vendors with seven models who are not alive, yet function at two different levels of reality: mannequins and photographs. All three rows seem totally unaware of each other. And not a customer in sight!
