So you think you’re doing everything you can to care for your clothes – from dry -cleaning to investing in plant-based detergent. But how are you letting your clothes spend the majority of its time, ie hanging in your wardrobe? If you’re guilty of reaching for the closest out-of-shape plastic hanger, or using only one type of hanger in your whole closet for aesthetic purposes, you might just be shortening the wearable life span of your clothes. Here are five tips to picking the best hangers for your clothing piece.

If your clothes are petite and end up stretched out on regular hangers, try using ones made for children. They usually come in fun colours which might be useful if you’re into colour-coding your closet.
