Contradiction?

The text contradicts itself.

Instead of relying on darts to shape the garment, its fit is achieved with long seams and shaped pattern pieces.[4] A rarely used alternative name for the Princess line was French-dart-line dress,[5] after the specific darts used in its construction.[6]

So did it have darts or not? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8070:7B1:1101:51DA:52F8:E501:C84A (talk) 23:23, 31 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The darts are incorporated into the long seams rather than angular cuts directly into the garment in the way that typical darts do. So while it doesn't look like darts, it is still a form of dart. Tricky to clarify/explain, so will have another go at this. Mabalu (talk) 11:35, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
