Even though many people fear dark, dusty closets, there's no need to fear Skitch, a multifunctional hanger that is both aesthetically pleasing and functionally useful. Designed by Greek designers Foant and Aliki, this [spooky hook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grim-reaper) is everything but scary. Made of white plexiglass, this accessory resembles the [upper body of a skeleton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exoskyn) to allow for several different items to be hanged.

Each bone serves a purpose: the ribs can hold neckties, the shoulder can hold shirts or jackets and the hips can hold pants. This humorous hook can also keep a complete outfit in one [single hanger](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multi-hanger). Presented at SALONESATELLITE 2010 in Milan, Skitch make the task of taking care of clothes a lot more fun and exciting. It's also ideal to decorate kids rooms, while teaching them how to hang their own garments in a fun and entertaining way.
