Collar is an optional feature bullet on Bloomingdale's Marketplace for the women's outerwear department. It names the collar type on a jacket or coat: funnel, shawl, stand, notch lapel, pillow collar, and whether a throat tab closes it at the neck. Bloomingdale's builds the on-site bullets from this value, so it appears on the product page with the closure, hood and sleeve bullets.
The rules
| Rule | Detail |
|---|---|
| Required | No. Leave it blank for a collarless style |
| Level | Parent. One value per style, shared by every colorway and size |
| Length | 254 characters at most, including spaces |
| Form | One phrase, no trailing period |
| Content | The collar type, plus a front throat tab and its closure (snap, zip or button) when present |
Collar types to name: funnel, shawl, stand, notch lapel, peak lapel, pillow, spread, point, band, hooded collar, rib-knit collar. Bloomingdale's field description also asks for the throat tab, the small strap that closes the collar across the neck on parkas and rain jackets, together with how it fastens.
A collarless coat, a hooded anorak with no collar under the hood, or a collarless bomber leaves this blank. A jacket whose hood grows out of a collar can use "Hooded collar" and leave the hood's own details to the Hood bullet.
Examples
| Value | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Notch lapel | Good | Type alone is enough |
| Stand collar with snap throat tab | Good | Type plus the throat tab and its closure |
| Funnel collar with zip throat tab | Good | Type and tab |
| Shawl collar with faux-fur trim | Good | Type and stated trim |
| Cozy collar | Weak | No type |
| Front zip closure | Weak | That is the Closure bullet |
| Brown faux-fur collar | Weak | Names the trim color, which varies by colorway |
| Has a stand collar. | Weak | Sentence with a trailing period |
Common mistakes
- Writing "lapel" without notch or peak.
- Describing the hood here instead of in the Hood bullet.
- Naming the trim color. Say "faux-fur trim" and let the colorway carry the color.
- Filling it on a collarless style. Blank is correct.
How Osello fills this field
Osello fills Collar once per parent listing for women's outerwear, reading the product description first, then the attributes, then the images, and writes one phrase under 254 characters with no trailing period. It names the collar type and, when the source states or the images show one, adds the throat tab and its closure. When neither the text nor the photography identifies a collar, the field stays blank for you to fill or leave empty. Neighboring outerwear bullets, including Neckline, are in the Bloomingdale's field directory.
Frequently asked questions
Is Collar required for women's outerwear on Bloomingdale's?
No. It is optional, and a collarless coat should leave it blank.
How do I write a throat tab?
Add it after the collar type with its closure, for example "Stand collar with snap throat tab".
Does a hood count as a collar?
Only when the hood rises from a collar. Write "Hooded collar" and put the hood's details in the Hood bullet.
Can I mention the faux-fur trim?
Yes, when every colorway has it. Write "faux-fur trim" without the color, since color belongs to the colorway.
