Vintage hanging


museot.fi
There was a time when shopping was still done in style. You bought your coat or dress - you got the hanger. It was equipped with the company name, city and there possibly was also a clever slogan. The item was meant to keep your expensive clothes in perfect condition with a perfect posture. The best hangers were wooden - still are.




You can buy these treasures with a few cents and create beautiful hanging displays from your favourite scarves and table linens.  Change them as your mood changes.


There is still enough time before 7th August to go and see "Tyylin aika" photographic exhibition in Helsingin Taidehalli. There the era of  stylish shopping is captured by The Grand Old Lady of Finnish Photography, Claire Aho.
