Do you dream of matching wooden hangers, equally spaced apart, each holding a beautiful piece of clothing? A library of shoes that requires a step ladder to reach them all? Your own mini-store of Oprah proportions - except instead of size 14 jeans and bright suits you'd find haute couture pieces and red soled shoes? If this all sounds like a dream come true, then you're going to love these top dream wardrobes. Places where grown ups can play dress ups, lose themselves in thousands of shoes and fall asleep on a bed of pastel sweaters.
Imelda Marcos
Imelda Marcos' wardrobe is much more than just a double door walk-in. It's a freaking museum. No matter how many shoes you can claim to have, you'll never measure up to the bad ass shoe bitch that is Imelda Marcos. Throughout her time as first lady of the Philippines, Imelda accumulated 5,400 pairs of shoes, only to leave them all behind when she and her husband, President Ferdinand Marcos, fled the country during a civil uprising. The shoes weren't of the tacky, 'buy one and get 50% off the second' types of shoes either. Not at all. In amongst the piles of mules, wedges and stilettos are the names Givenchy, Chanel, Christian Dior and Ferragamo. When she did eventually return to the Philippines in 2001, Imelda opened a shoe museum. "They went into my closets looking for skeletons, but thank God, all they found were shoes, beautiful shoes," she told the BBC in 2001 at the launch of the museum.

In 2010 romance novellist Danielle Steel was outed as the world's number one Louboutin customer.
