I usually purchase the shaper hanger polypropylene with chrome hook at 15" wide. But I do believe they have a longer shank one available. http://www.acmedisplay.com/shop/category.aspx?cat=1&id=18 Best Ann Ann Frisina Textile Conservator Minnesota Historical Society 345 Kellogg Blvd. W.

We would prefer a longer shank on the hanger than what most commercially available conservation hangers provide, in order to more safely accommodate historic costume with taller collars.
