Personified Coat Racks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Valet Stand Vanity is Your Personal Stationary Dresser

— July 14, 2011 — Art & Design
If it's not part of your usual routine, being waited on can make you feel like a million bucks. If the service isn't something you can budget for, this Valet Stand is halfway to offering the extra assistance.

Of course, you do have to dress the wooden groom yourself, but 'tomorrow you' can rejoice at the organized preparation of the day's chosen ensemble. Essentially then, this personified clothes hook may actually represent you, the day before.

Putting such overthinking aside, I will get into the features of this handy suit holder. A clothes hanger is included for the arrangement of your work shirt and suit jacket, while a separate rack and hook provide places for your pants and tie. A chest-height ledge offers a place for your wallet and phone, and the crowning circular mirror of the Dark Espresso Valet Stand completes its anthropomorphic look.
