Clothes Valet Stands

Most clothing valets on the market are intended for men’s suits, however there are a few designed for women, and even some for children! A clothing valet can be particularly handy in an office setting or for the individual who wears a suit day in and day out; or for someone who likes to choose clothing the night before and have it ready to go. They range in style and function from the most basic “one legged”suit valet that holds jacket and pants, to furniture-quality pieces that are not only functional for clothing but enhance the room where they’re located.

Generally made of solid wood with cherry, mahogany, walnut and natural finishes, a clothes valet stand is compatible with most any décor, but if you’re looking for a particular style, such as Mission or Japanese, they are available also.

Prices range from under $100 to around $200 and within that range, features evolve from the basic simple solid wood standing valet to valets that offer additional useful features such as coin trays or drawers, tie and belt rod, electronics charging station with surge protector, shoe racks, and chairseat with storage (also known as a chair valet). Look for a pants bar that is PVC covered so that pants are held securely in place and don’t slip off.

Some simple assembly may be involved.
