hanger

Wardrobe's wire skeleton

A hanger is a shaped frame for holding clothes, typically with a hook for hanging in a closet: wire hangers, wooden hangers.

The word extends to anything that hangs or supports hanging: a plant hanger, a stocking hanger.

A hanger is also a covered structure for housing aircraft.

Someone who hangs around is a hanger-on—a persistent, often unwelcome follower.
