    A participial phrase is a word group consisting of a present participle (also known as an -ing form).
    So, the participial phrase in the sentence is "fraying at its seams".

    A participle phrase functions as an adjective and most ends in -ing.

    In this case, the participle phrase in the sentence is D, fraying at its seams. The phrase describes the blue dress.

    The answer is C "fraying at the seams"

    Most often participial phrases act like adjectives, so that can help you identify them in the future. (Here it is modifying "dress")
