1. A clothes treatment apparatus comprising:
a hanger bar to hold clothes; and
a driver to cause the hanger bar to reciprocate,
wherein the hanger bar is configured to reciprocate with different amplitudes and periods by the driver,
wherein the hanger bar is configured to reciprocate in at least one of a first mode, a second mode, and a third mode,
wherein the hanger bar is configured to, in the first mode, reciprocate at a first frequency and a first amplitude, the first frequency being smaller than a resonance frequency of the driver,
wherein the hanger bar is configured to, in the second mode, reciprocate at a second frequency and a second amplitude, the second frequency being greater than the resonance frequency,
wherein the hanger bar is configured to, in the third mode, reciprocate at a third frequency and a third amplitude, the third frequency being between the first and second frequencies, the third amplitude being determined based on the third frequency, and the third amplitude being greater than the first amplitude and the second amplitude, and
wherein the hanger bar is configured to reciprocate to include at least the third mode.
