Dart means a wedge-shaped seam that removes excess fabric and gives a flat cloth three-dimensional shape.
Where you will notice it
Darts commonly shape the bust, waist, shoulder or back without adding a separate panel.
What to examine closely
The point should finish smoothly before the fullest area, without puckering, dimples or an abrupt ridge.
A decision worth making
When a product description mentions Dart, return to the garment and verify the claim. Ask what the feature changes for your body, your day and the long-term care of the piece.
