3. Use Different Types Of Hangers To Maximise Vertical Space

If you have a large collection of clothes, using regular hangers to store them can make you run out of closet space fast. Instead, try specialised hangers that maximise vertical room so you can hang multiple items on just one hanger. Check out our extensive and durable hanger collection to properly care for your clothes and utilise space fully at the same time!

Here are our picks to help you re-organize your closets:

  • Similar items: Store multiple similar looking items, such as plain T-shirts, jeans, sweaters with a multi-rung hanger. Use our Ladder Clothes Hanger to organize jeans and shawls, or our Multi Clothes Hanger that will keep ironed tops crisp and sweaters ready to wear. This will help you save closet space while storing the same number of items!
  • Prepared outfits: Prepare a set of clothes the night before, then throw on your outfit quickly during morning rush hour with our Outfitter Clothes Hanger! It’ll keep your prepared outfits wrinkle-free, while the unique design helps you to picture what your outfit will actually look like ahead of time.
  • Kids’ clothes: Constantly switching out clothes for your rapidly growing children can cost a fortune. Invest in our Kids Extend & Stack Clothes Hanger (10pc Set), that ‘grows’ together with your little ones! Use the hanger normally for infant clothes, then expand it up to a regular sized one as they grow.

4. Create More Closet Space Yourself

Add more space for clothes with a shelf divider! Some wardrobes have shelves placed far apart, causing you not to be able to fully utilize all the space between them. Split this space up by using adjustable dividers such as our Extendable Wardrobe & Cabinet Shelf Divider that fits perfectly no matter the width of your closet, to instantly free up more storage for more clothes or towels.

5. Organized Colour-coded Wardrobe

While this seems time-consuming and a little unnecessary at first, it’ll actually save you time in the future. By sorting your clothes by colour, it’s much easier to pick out matching sets and find a specific top or pair of pants in a snap, rather than rifling through your entire wardrobe. 

You can also organize them according to colour palettes, like neutrals, pastels and neon to make outfit selections even faster.

6. Vacuum Pack Seasonal Clothes


Keep your unused and bulky winter clothes compact and out of sight with vacuum bags and a separate storage box, as these take up more space in your closet. Vacuum-packed clothes will make it much easier to squeeze large winter clothes into small luggages too, to make space for other items like souvenirs!
