The band is tight, but not tight enough to justify getting a larger band – I'd just have to suffer the first few wears until it stretched enough. Freya seems to make their 28 bands less stretchy and thus tighter than all the other bands I've been satisfied with.
Furthermore, while the cups are deep enough, they're also cut as if I had almost a full size more of tissue on my upper breasts. Maybe a good fit for top heavy girls, but not my very-rounded ones. Tightening the straps (they adjust fully) helps considerably, but that's 1) painful, 2) doesn't make a difference when moving, 3) still not perfect.
Also, the straps are EXTREMELY wide. Like, ridiculously and unnecessarily wide. Which is terrible on my small frame. And the band is oddly wide/tall too, almost enough for a third hook, which is odd. Overall, I won't be bothering trying another size because I think the cut and shape of the bra is completely wrong for me (and I hate those straps). It has been returned.

Did you accidentally mix up the measurements for the 28D & 28DD? You have the 28D listed as having a Cup Width of 4.3" & a Cup Depth of 6.8", but your 28DD is listed here as C.W of 4.1" & C.D of 6.6". Which is in all reality a pretty small difference, but I would have expected the 28DD to be larger than the 28D, not the other way around.
