    Abstract: A clothes hanger (10) has a base (16) and shoulder pieces (18) which slidable couple to the base (16). A suspending member (20) rotatably couples to the base (16). The base (16) is wide and is shaped to roughly conform to the human body in the vicinity of the neck and shoulders. A texturized top surface (28) resists garment slippage. The shoulder pieces (18) have an inner section (46) and an outer section (48). The inner section (46) engages a receiving region (40) of the base (16). A knob (58) on the inner section (46) engages one of several holes (56) in the base to secure the shoulder piece (18) in a selected position relative to the base (16).
