A 28E means a 28-inch band with a E cup — roughly a 6-inch difference between your underbust and your bust measurement. Cup letters are not consistent between markets: UK-sized brands like Panache run a different ladder to US labels, so your 28E may sit a letter along depending on who made it.
How a 28E should fit
Support at 28E comes from structure rather than tightness. Look for a band with three or four hooks, wider side wings to stop the cup pulling forward, and cups seamed in sections rather than moulded from a single piece.
Sister sizes to try if 28E isn't right
- Band is comfortable but you're spilling over — go up to 28F
- Band digs in — 30DD gives the same cup volume with more room
Best 28E styles
Full-coverage and balconette shapes are the most reliable at 28E. If you want something under a t-shirt, choose a moulded cup with a seam beneath the bust rather than a completely smooth one. For sport, an encapsulation bra that supports each breast separately will beat a compression style at this size.
