Shoulder darts

Dear Curtis,

Welcome to our site. The reason we need shoulder darts is to make room for the shoulder blades, the same way as we have side bust darts to make room for the breats. Anytime we have a protrusion we need to make room for it, using darts will help to do this and let the garment take the three dimensional shape of the body better. 

If we don't like the look of certain darts, such as the shoulder dart, we can transfer their intakes into cut lines.

Hope this helps.

Happy sewing Nehzat
