    I remember U-Handbag does a dart in a circular bag: http://u-handbag.typepad.com/uhandblog/2007/03/silk_pleated_da.html

    She uses a 3.5cm length dart with a 55 degree triangle.
    I know that this really varies from purse to purse so you could start with these measurements then increase or decrease to your preference.

    Good luck!
