Composition=content
Composition is lovely here, perhaps a little too much like Shiizzams recent win, but works well. You have made a good statement here, but it could be taken as too general to really fit the topic of despair.
Technical
Focus appears to be on the material, adding a bit of softness to the eye area, perhaps this could be sharper. I think that the flash is a bit too bright for this kind of shot, perhaps some soft side lighting would have been good, lighting up the eye area, but de-emphasising the material.
My Opinion
I like the shot, it has a meassge and does make people think. The composition is great.

exposure begs for natural lighting not flash. You think despair but what do you see?

Dispair????????? But good use of lighting

This would be total despair to me ! Well done

You make a good cultural statement here, I like your idea. Maybe it would have been a better shot with different lighting? It seems too bright to me. I feel some shadows in the eyes would have given a better effect? Only a suggestion.

This implies...that Islamic women are despairing? I don't think I understand.

Nicely done. I really like the idea, the composition, and the light. Nice.
