Why children's clothes need their own hangers
An adult hanger is too wide for a small garment. Its ends stretch the shoulders, create bumps in the fabric and widen the neckline, and the garment tends to slip and fall off. A kids' hanger is shorter and lower, so the garment sits on it in its natural shape. In a store, the garment looks the way it is meant to look on the child, and at home it stays free of marks. Kids' hangers are part of the Hangers category.
Which hanger size suits which age
26 cm: baby and toddler clothes, such as bodysuits, small tops and dresses for the youngest ages.
33 cm: children's clothes, such as shirts, dresses, hoodies and light jackets. This is the width of most hangers in the category.
43 cm: teen and adult clothes.
The professional rule: the hanger should be slightly narrower than the garment's shoulder line. If the ends of the hanger poke out of the sleeves, it is too wide. If the garment sags in the middle, it is too narrow. The white hanger in three sizes comes in all three widths with the same design, so the baby, kids' and teen departments look consistent.
Hanger construction: bar, notches and hook
Bottom bar: for hanging folded trousers, leggings and skirts, or a complete outfit on a single hanger.
Hanging notches: for the straps of dresses, overalls and tank tops, so they don't slip off.
Molded hook: part of the hanger body, with no metal parts. Compact and convenient for hanging on low rails in a child's wardrobe.
Swivel metal hook: on the white model in three sizes. Lets you turn the garment toward the customer without taking it off the rack.
For trousers and skirts that need to hang at full length, the site also offers hangers with clips for trousers and skirts.
How to choose a color
In a children's clothing store
White: neutral, does not compete with the prints and colors of children's clothes, and suits every collection and season.
Black: a sharp, modern look that suits boutiques and concept brands.
Colors: for marking departments, sizes or sales. For example, one color for each age range, or a few colored hangers on a white rack to mark sale items.
At home
A color for each child makes sorting the laundry simple: every garment goes back to the right wardrobe. Light hangers in small sizes also let children hang up their clothes themselves, on a low rail within their reach.
When to switch to adult hangers
There is no fixed age, because it depends on the garment size, not on age. When the garment's shoulder line is wider than the hanger, when the garment droops off the ends, or when you start buying teen sizes, switch to a hanger about 43 cm wide. It is worth checking one garment against the hanger before replacing a whole wardrobe.
Kids' hangers for stores, designers and photography
Stores and chains: one uniform hanger for all stores and all seasons, which can be reordered in the same model.
Children's clothing designers: for presenting a collection in the studio, at fairs and in photo shoots. For pattern making there are also children's dress forms.
Photography for an online store: a white hanger almost disappears against a light background, so the garment stands out.
In-store display: show the lead items on children's display mannequins, and the rest of the collection on the rack.

Frequently asked questions
What is the size of a children's hanger?
The common width for children's clothing is 33 cm. For baby and toddler clothing, a 26 cm hanger is suitable, and for teen and adult clothing a hanger of about 43 cm. Most of the hangers in the category are 33×20.5 cm, and the white hanger in three sizes comes in all three widths.
Why not hang children's clothes on a regular hanger?
An adult hanger is too wide for a small garment. Its ends stretch the shoulders, leave bumps in the fabric and widen the neckline, and the garment tends to slip. A children's-size hanger keeps the shape of the garment, in the closet and on the rack in a store.
Until what age do you use a children's hanger?
It depends on the garment size and not on age. When the garment's shoulder line is wider than the hanger, or when the garment droops at the ends, switch to a wider hanger, usually when you start buying teen sizes. It's worth measuring one garment against the hanger before replacing a whole closet. All the types of hangers are in the Hangers category.
What hanger color should I choose for a children's clothing store?
White is the safe choice: it does not compete with the colors of the clothes and suits every collection. Black suits boutiques with a modern look. Colors are useful for marking departments, sizes or sales. Most important is to choose one model and keep it along the whole rack, so the display looks uniform.
Can I order children's hangers in bulk for a store?
Yes. HaBayit LaBubot (the House of Dress Forms and Display Mannequins) sells children's hangers wholesale to stores, chains and brands. Each color shows a per-unit price on the website, and for large quantities you can get a quote via Contact. Orders can be picked up free of charge from the store at Kfar Giladi 15, Tel Aviv, or delivered nationwide according to the terms on the Shipping and Returns page.
Why do children's hangers have a lower bar with notches?
On the bar you hang trousers and skirts, and in the notches you hold the straps of dresses and jumpsuits, so the garment doesn't slip.
How do you arrange a closet so a child can use it alone?
Lower the hanging rail to a height the child can reach, and use small, light hangers that he or she can take down and put back alone.
How do I organize a children's closet by hanger colors?
You can give each child their own color, or mark types of clothing by color, such as school clothes, holiday clothes and seasonal clothes.
What are children's hangers made of?
Molded plastic, with a hook molded as part of the hanger body, so there are no parts that come loose.
How do you clean a children's plastic hanger?
Wash in lukewarm water with a little mild soap and dry with a cloth.
