Abstract: A collapsible garment hanger which includes a hook, a first and second tensioning element which extend from the hook, the first and second tensioning elements being terminated with a first and second distal tip, respectively. A first and second shoulder element each having a first end and a substantial middle region, the first ends of the first and second shoulder elements being pivotally connected and rotate in relation to each other, the substantially middle region of the first and second shoulder elements having a hole which accepts the first and second distal tips, respectively. The first and second shoulder elements pivot in relation to the first and second tensioning elements, respectively. The first and second tensioning elements are grasped and compressed toward each other with one hand to force the first and second shoulder elements into a collapsed position for insertion or removal from a small opening in a garment.
