likesEven though the bands measure the same in both bras, the 32DD stretches more so it's not as snug as the 28DDDD. The cups are very similar in depth, the 32DD has shorter and wider cups, whereas the 28DDDD's are taller and narrower.

The cups are sister sizes. DDDD is the same as an F. When I purchased the Freya I bought it under DDDD but it is tagged an F. The description on the website for HerRoom said the two were comparable. Figleaves and HerRoom don't use the same letters though, because my other two Freya's (same exact size) are tagged G, but comparable to a DDDD - bought from Figleaves.

Ah, I think I know where's that comming from, Chantelle bras are tagged DDDD (US), F (UK) and G(EU).
I thought the Freya bra actually said "DDDD" on the label, which I had not seen before :)

The Freya bra is also tagged as DDDD?
I'm quite surprised to see how these both bras can have similar fits :), totally unexpected.
