Abstract
A detachable accessory device for a garment hanger has a fastening element, such as a clip, for fastening to a portion of a garment, and a flexible element for attaching the fastening element to the garment hanger such that the fastening element is movably attached to, but spaced apart from, the garment hanger. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a pair of clips are connected to respective ends of a pair of elastic elements. The other ends of each of the elastic elements are connected to a ring which is suitable for connection to a garment hanger by, for example, placement over the body of the garment hanger hook. The clips are secured to portions of a garment to secure the garment in proper position and alignment on the hanger. The accessory device may be detachably attached to the garment hanger or, alternatively, be integrally formed with, or permanently attached to, the hanger assembly. In a preferred embodiment, the clips are provided with rounded edges and coverings to avoid snagging or other damage to garments or other adjacent items.
