WARNING TO ALL CUSTOMERS: DO NOT USE OUR WIRE HANGERS
THEY WHILE VERY SLIGHTLY AND ALMOST UNNOTICEABLEY FUCK UP THE SOLDERS OF YOUR CLOTHES
THANK YOU, THIS HAS BEEN A PSA FROM YOUR LOCAL DRY CLEANERS WHO'S OWNERS KNOW 9 WORDS IN ENGLISH
Joan Crawford grew up dirt poor and wire hangers were a reminder of poverty and growing up poor. Especially since, as a rich mega actress, she could afford fancy ass coat hangers.
The John Waters commentary on the Mommy Dearest DVD goes into details about this: Joan internalized her poverty growing up with shit like obsessive compulsive cleaning (also seen in the movie) and losing her shit over wire hangers and her daughter using her make-up. She went from a poor fag to a rich fag overnight and it fucked her up.

I've seen people with all their clothes on wire hangers and their clothes look fine to me...

Wouldn't wire hangers be a symbol of wealth since not everyone can afford the dry cleaners and some are reduced to using the laundromat.

She's pro-life.
They hung her entire family('s clothes on them). It drove her insane.

Doubtful. Also I don't think abortion was an issue back then?
