Hi guys!

I have a main menu organized in the following way:

and whenever I select a sub-collection with Women for example, the breadcrumbs ignore the Top Collection.

In the below example the expected Breadcrumb result should have been Home → Women → Womens Sunglasses

How do I modify my breadcrumbs implementation so that takes this hierarchy into account?

Thanks for your support!
