ABSTRACT:
Adjustable clothes hanger structure (10, 40) comprising an upper hanging hook (12, 42) fixed to its centre point (14, 44), two symmetrical side arms (16,16′; 46,46′) extending from said centre point (14, 44) and movable means (18,18′; 48,48′; 58,58′) for supporting the garment fixed integrally with sliding elements (22,22′; 52,52′) in cavities (20,20′; 50,50′) provided inside said arms (16,16′; 46,46′). The means of support can be fitted above the arms (16, 16′) for optimal support of sleeve units, or below the arms (46, 46′) for optimal support of garments such as skirts or trousers. The structure permits adjustment of the means of support (18,18′; 48,48′; 58,58′) of the garment to the required width, so that the clothes hanger can be adapted to different garment sizes.
