likesThe band is significantly wider and has an extra silicone strip on the 28DD making it much more comfortable and sturdy than the 28D. The DD also has 3 hooks instead of 2. Therefore, the 28D stretches out way faster, in addition to being less comfortable to wear. I consider this wildly unfair, given that they cost the same.
The cups on the 28DD are inexplicably wider by at least a full centimetre (I measured width as 13cm for the DD and 12cm for the D) for no good reason. They're both 28s, so the cup width should be constant imo.
The cups are of course bigger in the 28DD. Depth is somewhat variable depending on strap placement though, so both bras actually fit me OK depending on how I wear them.
