32D isn't really that big: http://www.brabandproject.com/gallery/search/band/32/

Even demi cups in the wrong size will have too much projection or will gap. I would say the most forgiving shape is a triangle shaped cup without shaping. Really, though, if a bra doesn't fit you, you will have fitting problems. If you don't, it fits.

Also, VS does carry down to 30 bands. They also run small.

I find it all highly confusing. All I can say is I was measured up in store as a 12B. My breasts are quite wide apart so I need cups that are wider.
I also cant STAND anything tight around my chest :s
Moving to 12 bands has been the best thing I ever did!@! I must google and see what 12b is converted to US size!
