Silhouette is an optional product dimension bullet on Bloomingdale's Marketplace for the kids and baby dresses department. It names the overall shape of the dress: A-line, sheath, fit-and-flare, shift. The value appears in the details section of the product page once the listing is in a kids and baby dresses category.
The rules
| Rule | Value |
|---|---|
| Required | No |
| Maximum length | 254 characters, spaces included |
| Form | One phrase, no trailing period |
| Level | Parent listing, one value for the whole style |
| Department | Kids and baby dresses |
Use one silhouette: A-line, sheath, fit-and-flare, shift, wrap, empire, bodycon, tiered. A coat or blazer that lands in this department takes single-breasted or double-breasted instead. The bullet is shared across the grouping, so never describe one color or one size.
Examples
| Value | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| A-line | Good | One silhouette |
| Fit-and-flare | Good | One silhouette |
| Tiered | Good | One silhouette |
| Empire | Good | One silhouette |
| Double-breasted | Good | Correct for a coat dress |
| Flowy | Weak | Not a silhouette |
| Twirl-worthy fit-and-flare shape. | Weak | Marketing copy with a period |
| Knee-length A-line | Weak | Length belongs in the Length bullet |
Common mistakes
- Combining the silhouette with the length. Hem position goes in Length.
- Using a fit word (relaxed, slim) instead of a shape.
- Copying a silhouette from the title when the images show a different shape.
How Osello fills this field
Osello treats Silhouette as an optional parent-level text field limited to 254 characters. When a kids and baby dresses listing is filled in, the AI reads the description first, then the attributes, then the images, and writes one silhouette word or hyphenated term. The value is written once per style and shared by every size and colorway. When the shape is not stated and not clear from the images, the field stays blank. Vocabulary can be adjusted with custom instructions.
