Issue resolved
Thank you!
Original problem
I'm transitioning to bras that fit from 32As and I need help! Does this look like it fits? The 28DD Jude was too fast-closing on top. Is this one too narrow? The band feels good,the top of the cups gap a little bit (can't quite fill it) but not noticeably under clothes.

The band looks very firm and parallel around, which is always a good sign. I do see a bit of gaping on the right breast though, I can't be for sure about the left though. Other than that, I think it's a pretty good fit. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I see, it fits fairly well.
Be sure to scoop any and all tissue from the side though, if you haven't done that, that might help with the gaping, but it might not. Just a suggestion though, I sure like the way it looks and I approve of the fit.

I think this bra looks a lot better on you than the 30B wacoal bra did. You are getting more projection but if you look at the measurements of the bras, you can see that they're about the same width.
The Deco is taller, so you're not spilling out as much on the sides, but I think you would be best in wider cups, maybe around 4.8 - 5 inches in width would be ideal.Did you scoop all your breast tissue in from the sides? That might help eliminate the gaping, but if it's not staying in, then you definitely need the wider cups

The Freya Deco Halfcup is wider than the normal deco and doesn't come up as high. I like that one on me because there's a little padding on the bottom that makes the breasts very round and full on top. Calvin Klein is also very wide in the cups, but they only go to 30. I think the ones with lace runs tighter than the regular ones, but they're pretty comfortable overall. I purchased a Wacoal Double drama bra yesterday and the band felt like a 28. It's also pretty wide.
Some other bras you might want to try are the Cleo Juna and Lucy...Maybe the Karen :O? Not many reviews on that yet, but it's cute and molded :oI'm pretty sure the gaping on the deco is because the cups are pretty tall and made for top heavy boobs, and usually doesn't fit small boobs that well since they tend to be a little more bottom heavy.

I would recommend Lepel Fiore Plunge or Pour Moi Essence, those have the widest wires known. especially the Fiore Plunge is known to never cut into the breast, no matter which breast shape you have.
The deco plunge fits breasts that are full at the top, that can be difficult for some breast shapes. But the deco halfcup may be a good idea :)

helpfulThe bra fits ok. But there's breast tissue located in your underarms and your back it seems like.
You might want to take a look at that if you care about this kind of stuff. But for that you need bras that have cups with a higher side wall and a taller band to hold that into your cups. Usually breast tissue located in this area will not be scooped up instantly, but takes time depending on how long it was there and how firm it is. So always leave a little room in the cups for your first fit so you can eventually move the tissue in those two locations inside the cups.
This of course, is our personal opinion.

Thank you for all your help. Do you have any suggestions for wide & shallow cupped bras besides Jude, which didn't fit? What causes the gaping? Not enough breast tissue, or breast tissue pushing away the top of the cup?
