Shop Local: The Hanger

The Hanger
The Hanger is a new boutique in Louisville located in The Highlands, and I recently had the pleasure of stopping into the shop and chatting with owner Amanda Hinds.

The Hanger girls are Amanda and Frances and they specialize in designing and creating custom-fit clothing for women of all shapes and sizes, with a motto of We make clothes in sizes Y-O-U

Check out their Facebook Albums for a sample of some of the custom dresses and clothing pieces they make.  I am seriously so in love with so many pieces from their October Lookbook!  I think many women can appreciate wanting to have the perfect dress or pair of pants that is tailor-made to fit the uniqueness of their body.  The Hanger gals are able to create custom stylish pieces for anyone, at affordable prices.

 This Kate dress is one of The Hanger’s most popular designs.  Its beautiful wrap style is flattering on every body shape.
 
The Hanger also sells handmade items from local artists and crafters. I was excited to see Miss Happy Pink’s art and other accessories from D.I.Y. Louisville members for sale in the shop. Amanda and Frances share a vision of creating and supporting handmade in our community.  Handmade supporting handmade – that’s what I love to see.

You can find more information on custom clothing orders by visiting The Hanger on Facebook.  Liking their page is the best way to stay up to date on sales, promotions, and new merchandise.  The Hanger gift certificates make perfect stocking stuffers.  I know that I’m adding one to my wishlist this year!
