Velvet, silk or printed cotton, what girl doesn’t take pleasure in placing clothes on a padded hanger? For our most treasured frocks, we do just that.

Everything else lives on these ultra fine velvet hangers ($9.99 for five) that don’t hog space. The soft velvet covering is kind to your clothes (unlike pesky wire ones) and stops them from falling off the hanger all the time.

Your vastly overflowing wardrobe will appear as a capsule in no time. Make way for the voluminous peplum skirt. —Athena Tsavliris
