I wear a 32 DD as well....its not that common of a size and I typically have to spend a bit more, but Nordstroms and Victorias Secret both carry great bras in 32DD.
I don't get how VS can call those bras "full coverage." Maybe they don't really know what that term means? Plunging petal cup V-lines that expose the *entire* length of cleavage and has low enough armpit clearance to expose the side "muffins" of the breasts is not "full coverage." It's "sort of coverage."
There is nothing "full coverage" about -any- of VS full coverage line of bras.

I am completely afraid. One of my friends is also a 32DD and has such a time finding bras. Currently looking to lose some weight, and I still have a ways to go. I am 34-36 right now, I'll probably end up with something really obnoxious like 32G.

You need to go up a cup size or two if thats the case.
I used to order a lot from Bravissimo (bras, strappy tops, bathing suits), but if you live in the states, shipping can be a pain in the butt. It takes a long time and returns aren't so easy.
Bare Necessities & Fig Leaves are easier & quicker and they carry a lot of the same items Bravissimo does except for the clothing.
When I had a large chest, my favorite lines were Freya, Panache, Fantasie, and Elomi.

I like figleaves more. Easier returns. Love Freya, Panache and Fantasie. Elomi....not so much they have WAY too much fabric. I feel like I am being choked. Freya has lots of cute, young looking lingerie.

I have full boobies and I like their Showstopper full coverage bra. Yes, you can see the cleavage however, both of my boobs actually stay in the cups when I bend over. I never get that mashed cleavage look in the showerstopper...for me it lifts and seperates and they stay put.
The showstopper is an underwire bra and the underwire goes all the way to the side of my chest under the armpit which makes it really comfortable. It also elimiates that side spillage.
I also like the fact that the armpit clearance is lower. It allows me to wear more summer styles because I don't have to worry about my bra showing when I lift my arms. I also don't have to wear a cami under everything which is a nice change.
It's not the highest quality bra but it's comfortable and cheap enough that I can just replace them every so often. Plus I'm not stuck with white, beige or black as a color choice (though some stores are getting better at stocking prettier bras in bigger sizes).
As many have noted, it's best to get fitted with a older/experienced lady. Some people are in between sized and can go either with a 32 band or a 34 band depending on the manufacturer.
When I was in a ltr, the girl had the wrong size bra....I could tell from all my experience (hahaha...the hand never lies!) in life. I purchased her a bra as a gift which was a 32c and it fit her like a glove.
There are many places that sell 32dd, but most of these places are outside of north america. women here tend to have a larger band than many other places around the world; thus the tendency to have 34 and up for sizes.
If you're in europe, see if any of the Ann Summers bras work well for you. That's what I got as a gift for my friend.
