Abstract
A hanging arrangement which includes a hanger. The hanger has a central portion and two elongated hanger arms which extend away from the central portion. The central portion has an inner facing side which defines a space. The arms each hold shoulder straps of a brassiere in position against the arms so as to avoid relative movement of the shoulder straps where held with respect to the arms. The inner facing side has a portion at an elevation which is higher than where the shoulder straps of the brassiere are to be held against the arms. The arms each have a face which extends in a common plane. The faces each have a predetermined width so that if said faces are each projected through the space to intersect each other as would occur by further elongating the hanger arms toward each other, said portion of the inner facing side lies within said widths of the faces as projected. The space is adapted to accommodate a support member inserted therein so that the portion of the side rests against the support member.
