What is a "coat hanger"?

A coat hanger is a device used to hang and support a coat, jacket, or other types of clothing to prevent them from getting wrinkled or creased. It is typically made of plastic or wire and features a hook or a hanger that allows it to be hung on a rod or a hook. Coat hangers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, including those with clips or clamps that allow for the hanging of skirts or pants. Some coat hangers also feature padding or grips to keep clothes from slipping off, while others are designed with special shapes or features for specific types of garments. Coat hangers are commonly found in closets, wardrobes, and laundry rooms, and are essential tools for keeping clothes organized and in good condition.
