My breasts are extremely shallow, moderately wide, and conical. I usually wear a 28DD or 30D.

This was a $5 Dillards sale bin find, and I am still surprised at how well it fits.

This bra is very much a pushup bra. In my size range, there's often more pushup than cup space in pushup bras, and this one is no exception. The cups are moulded, and the outside is a soft, cottony fabric. There's a line of lace across the top of the cups. My breasts are wide (but not extremely wide), and the cup is the right width for them.

This is a multiway bra. You can do regular, racerback, or halter style. You could even do strapless, I suppose (and it still fits well strapless), but the top of the cups kinda pokes into the armpits, so I don't recommend it. The straps are fully adjustable, and I have no problems with length. Unfortunately, my biggest complaint is that the straps are fairly wide set, and they will probably fall down fairly easily. But since I can convert this bra to racerback, that won't be a problem anymore.

If this brand made 28 bands, I would trade out this 30D for a 28DD in a heartbeat. But since 28s are nowhere to be found, I'm starting out with this bra on the tightest hook (heresy, I know). And it's probably still a little loose, technically. But since my band isn't riding up, I'm calling it Good Enough. Especially for five bucks.

-edit-

After wearing the bra for a few weeks, I found a sore spot that rubs a bit. The top outer edge of the cup, around where the strap connects, tends to rub in my armpit. I'm also altering the fit on this one to say that cups are slightly too narrow.

-edit edit-

After a few months and a few more wears, I'm going to partially rescind my previous edit. It's not so much that the cups are too narrow, but it's more that the strap meets the cup at an awkward spot in my armpits, and that's what's causing the rub.
