# Bloomingdale's Closure (Kids & Baby Backpacks, Kids & Baby Beach and Bath Towels, Kids & Baby Belts and 16 more) Field Guide

> Max character limit of 254 characters (including spaces).

**Closure** on Bloomingdale's Marketplace states how an item fastens: the closure type, where it sits and whether it is concealed or exposed. This page covers the version of the field for the kids and baby accessories department: hats, mittens, bibs, backpacks, belts and hair accessories. This one is required, so a listing here will not submit without it. It sits on the parent listing, one value for every colorway and size, and Bloomingdale's builds one of the on-site feature bullets from it.

## The rules

| Rule | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Required | Yes, in kids and baby accessories |
| Length | At most 254 characters, spaces included |
| Form | One phrase, no trailing period |
| Level | Parent listing, shared by every variant in the style group |

Name the type first: zipper, snaps, buttons, buckle, toggles, tie, wrap, hook-and-eye, hook-and-bar. Add the location when you know it (front, back, under the chin), call out an asymmetric placement, and add "concealed", "exposed", "adjustable" or "detachable" when the source data says so.

For an item that simply pulls on, such as a beanie or mittens, use "Pull-on styling", the phrase Bloomingdale's closure fields use for garments without a fastening. For an item with nothing to open or fasten, Osello recommends a plain "No closure" rather than an empty required field.

## Examples

| Value | Verdict | Reason |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Adjustable snap closure at chin | Good | Type, adjustability and location |
| Front zip closure | Good | Type and location |
| Pull-on styling | Good | Correct phrase for a beanie or mitten |
| Velcro | Weak | A brand name; write "hook-and-loop closure" |
| Snaps on the pink version | Weak | Describes one colorway |

## Common mistakes

- Leaving the field blank because the item has no obvious fastening. It is required here.
- Using a trademark for a generic closure type.
- Describing the closure of one colorway when others differ.

## How Osello fills this field

Osello treats Closure as a required text field on the parent listing for items placed in a kids and baby accessories category on Bloomingdale's. The AI agent reads the product description first, then the attributes, then the images, and writes one phrase within the 254-character limit naming the closure type, location and visibility. The value is set once per style group and mirrored to every colorway and size. Because the field is required, a listing without it shows as unfinished in [required fields and listing readiness](/help/channels-listings/required-fields-and-listing-readiness) until it is filled.

The closure fields for [bottoms](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields/fnb1-kids-and-baby-bottoms), [tops](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields/fnb5-kids-and-baby-tops) and [outerwear](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields/fnb5-kids-and-baby-outerwear) are optional. All of them are in the [Bloomingdale's field directory](/marketplaces/bloomingdales/fields).

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Closure required for kids and baby accessories on Bloomingdale's?

Yes. This is one of the few kids departments where the closure field is required, so the listing will not submit until it holds a value.

### How do I fill Closure for a beanie with no fastening?

Write "Pull-on styling". For an item with nothing to fasten at all, Osello recommends a plain "No closure" rather than an empty required field.

### Can I write "Velcro"?

Use the generic term, "hook-and-loop closure". Trademarks are not closure types and can differ from the material actually used.
