The mannequin challenge
KARACHI: They don’t move or say anything but they dress well. Roaming in the mannequin market on the first floor of Karim Centre, a busy shopping centre in Saddar, brings to mind the 1987 movie Mannequin, where the mannequin on display in a shop window comes to life as Emmy. The hit movie caught people’s imagination which gave way to a sequel in 1991. One also thinks about the internet video trend, the Mannequin Challenge where live groups of people stand still as a camera films them. Could it be that these dummies, some of them with pretty features, are alive?
