Are you sewing in woven or stretch?
You cant just take out a dart. The fitting needs to pivoted somewhere else eg. to a gathered neckline or turn into side seam tucks, or make a shoulder dart instead of a bust dart.

I figured out how to reduce the bust dart without changing the bust measurement. I have put a tutorial on my blog. You could just close the dart altogether if you don’t need it.
