Abstract: There is disclosed a garment bag holder including a rigid grasp handle formed centrally with an elongated through aperture which also projects toward one end thereof to form an upwardly opening hook-receiving slot. A transverse pivot pin is mounted centrally in the handle projecting through the aperture and has one end of a suspension hook looped thereabout to form a pivot eye encircling the pin and project therefrom to form a shank terminating in a looped back hook which may be pivoted between a retracted position disposed longitudinally in such slot aperture and an operative position projecting transversely from the handle. A slip noose is connected with the hook pivot eye for receipt of coat hanger hooks projecting from a garment bag and arranged to tighten thereon under the weight of garments on such coat hangers.
