Hanger

Hello,

Can you please tell me what you call the object in the picture? I'm guessing there's "hanger" somewhere in there.
Thank you

H.

Something of this shape could only be for clothing. And this is apparently a portable men's clothes rack, for very small apartments with no closet space. The highest, clothes hanger-shaped crosspiece is where you'd hang your overcoat.

I think it's a "valet stand". Google image search seems to confirm this. The Wikipedia entry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothes_valet) says it is also called a "clothes valet". The term "clothes valet stand" also seems to be used.
