A clothes hanger, with a hanger body (2) which holds a garment in hanging fashion and with a suspension part (3) which protrudes away from the central region of the hanger body (2) and is used to suspend the clothes hanger, contains a drive unit (4) with a battery-operated electric motor and a driveshaft (5). The suspension part (3) and the hanger body (2) are interconnected via the driveshaft (5), so that when the motor is running the hanger body (2) performs a rotating movement about the suspension part (3). <IMAGE>
