The wire hanger is Superbia!


Superbia (or Pride), one of the seven deadly sins, that might be considered as the worse, since even Lucifer fell down from the heavens as his pride became bigger than God himself. Being proud means feeling superior over the others, feeling more important and always looking down on other people. The state of pride is usually in a tight connection with having abundance of material goods and riches, and feeling pity for those that do not have the same material status. And the symbol of the wire hanger comes in! Although it is a very common everyday object, it is closely associated with the fashion world, where the elite of rich and famous parade proudly with their haute couture, often surpassing morality, exaggerating with value and style. They could not have done all that without the help of the wire hanger, as it helps them carry all that over-prised clothes.

 
 
The fall of Lucifer because of his Superbia,
a sin that the even the wire hanger promotes.
