Even evolving humans must have hung their belongings and animal skin clothes on sticks stuck between uneven rock cave walls. Indigenous people of the world had to have something to keep their garments from touching their dirt floors.
Dear Ones,
In colonial times people didn't have closets and hung their clothes on pegs. In fact, it was a sign of wealth for those impressed by possessions.
Today clothes hangers come in various styles. Some people like to mix them in closets, while others like only a certain, uniform kind–gold, bronze all mixed toether, with "neatniks" separating them by color. Therefore domestic manufacturers please everyone. Hangers may be wooden, wire or plastic. Dry cleaners have their own designs. In departments stores the plastic is many times translucent with silver metal hooks.
Often men like robust hangers for their suits and bulky clothing. Athletes of both genders like this style. Women creatively design their own hangers from wire ones. They pad them in silk and satin for delicate clothing. Those who crochet and knit cover hangers in different material, colors and designs. There's no limit to what an artist can do with a hanger.
In today's world where space is essential in apartments and lofts, very thin plastic or paper derivatives make room for those with large ensembles. Calder creatively nvented mobiles out of series of joined hangers with odds without ends hanging from them.
There is a hanger for everyone, even airplanes! So hang in there.
