Does anyone know where i can get a portable wardrobe from? Something that doesn't really need any assembling (no nails etc) but can also be folded and packed. I have looked at IKEA but there is nothing that has a place to hang clothes.
Many thanks!!

I used to own one of those. My problem with them is the tacky/garish designs and colors if you buy them retail. Carrefour's just a plain blue color canvass (not sure if it comes in colors or patterns that you can see with Google Earth or from the ISS).

I used to own 8 of them. 4 in each bedroom that was being rented out! One for each bed!

Course that was 20 years ago!

Still better than the Ikea's versions, which are plain white - and are super clingy when it comes to getting dust stuck on 'em
Well, isn't Google Earth Realtime ? I should put one outside the house and see in the Web ...

What keeps this portable wardrobe upright? does it need support from external beams or is it an independent wardrobe, stand alone?

Most of them have collapsible plastic beams. Imagine erecting a tent. Yeah, that's how it works. Some have castors at the bottom for mobility while the others are just like regular wardrobes.

They have a metal or plastic frame in which the plastic/vinyl covering is erected on the tubular skeleton. The just slide into each other and can be broken down again for storage in the flat box the normally come in. Usually will have a fibreboard bottom and a single fibreboard shelf at the top.
