Hood is an optional feature attribute on Bloomingdale's Marketplace for the women's outerwear department. It describes the hood on a coat, parka or jacket: fixed or detachable and how it detaches, whether it stows into the collar, any drawstring or adjuster, its trim and its lining. Bloomingdale's prints the value as a feature bullet on the product page, so a shopper can see "Zip-detachable hood with drawstring" before opening the description.
Bloomingdale's Marketplace runs on Mirakl and shares attribute definitions with Macy's. Each apparel department has its own hood field; this page covers women's outerwear. The same attribute exists for women's tops, women's dresses and kids and baby outerwear.
The rules
| Rule | Detail |
|---|---|
| Required | No. Blank when the garment has no hood |
| Level | Parent listing, one value shared by every color and size |
| Length | Up to 254 characters, spaces included |
| Format | One phrase, no trailing period |
| Attachment | Fixed, or detachable by button, snap or zip |
| Extras | Stows into collar, drawstring, adjustable, faux-fur trim (fixed or removable, with fiber), lining (shearling, fleece) |
Bloomingdale's own definition asks for "fixed or detachable by button, snap, zip, etc." and whether there is a drawstring, so "detachable" on its own is incomplete. Cover the mechanism first, then the adjusters, trim and lining that apply. When the trim is faux fur, name the fiber in parentheses so the bullet agrees with the fiber content elsewhere on the page. The bullet is shared by the whole style group, so never describe one colorway ("navy hood lining") or one size.
Examples
| Value | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Zip-detachable hood with drawstring | Good | Mechanism plus adjuster |
| Fixed hood with removable faux-fur trim (polyester) | Good | Attachment, trim status and fiber |
| Attached hood stows into collar | Good | Stowable detail |
| Snap-detachable hood with fleece lining | Good | Mechanism and lining |
| Detachable hood | Weak | Does not say how it detaches |
| Hooded | Weak | No construction at all |
| Keeps you warm on windy days. | Weak | Sentence with a period, no detail |
Common mistakes
- Filling the field for a hoodless coat. Blank is correct.
- Saying "detachable" without the mechanism. Bloomingdale's asks for button, snap or zip.
- Putting the collar here. Collar shape goes in Collar.
- Describing the fur trim material only here. The material itself also belongs in Fur or Hair; Hood covers how the trim attaches.
- Ending the phrase with a period, or joining several sentences.
How Osello fills this field
Osello treats Hood as an optional parent-level text field on women's outerwear listings, so one phrase is shared by every variant. The AI reads the product description first, then the product attributes, then the images, and writes at most 254 characters with no trailing period. If nothing in the source states or shows a hood it leaves the field blank rather than inventing one. Brand vocabulary for hoods and trims can be set with custom instructions, and the department's other attributes are in the Bloomingdale's field directory.
Frequently asked questions
Is Hood required on Bloomingdale's?
No. It is optional in the women's outerwear department. Fill it only when the garment has a hood.
How do I describe a hood that zips off?
Name the mechanism: "Zip-detachable hood". Add the drawstring, trim or lining in the same phrase when the source states them.
Should I include the faux-fur trim fiber?
Yes, when you know it. "Removable faux-fur trim (polyester)" tells the shopper the trim is synthetic and matches the fiber content on the page.
The hood packs into the collar. Is that a Hood detail or a Packable detail?
Hood. "Attached hood stows into collar" describes the hood. Packable is for a whole garment that packs into a pocket, its hood or a bag.
