36 is too big in the band for those ladies. More like 28-32 from likely GG-J cups.
Those are from Curvy Kate. And that brand picks real women ofr their models, and runs a vote for their customers. So technically these ladies are models by trade. Anyone over a D cup in any band can apply in the annual contest.
They are barely plus sized. They are all probably size 6-10 and they are perfect
To put things in perspective, this Curvy Kate model is a 32H, so I would assume those 4 women must be smaller than an H and maybe even have 30 or 28 bands?

Oops, I meant to say not models by trade.
Anyone can enter the contest. They are due for another one soon. I voted last time around! I bug the Nordstrom's peeps every few months to carry Curvy Kate bras, since they have one of the largest size ranges around for D+ women.
For reference, my measurements are about 4 inches more than yours in every dimension. And I am a 34, occasional 32 in the band.
Thanks for the info. I'm looking forward to getting a proper fitting bra but I'm kind of putting it off because I don't want to part with upwards of $60 . I know I will eventually, but I'm putting it off for now.

Nordi's or CurvyKate has the largest size range?
Nordi's has a pretty good range for a mainstream place. They sell 30 bands in my area, and also stock D-G on a regular basis. But above H is pretty limited. Only a couple of styles in UK H. Or they do have a few brands (Chantelle and Wacoal) that run a little loose in the band and small in the cup, so for me, I would need like 2 cups past what they stop at.
I find for me the selection is a bit limited, but I am nearing the top for many brands. But they do have quite a lot for most people.
They do tend to have lots of Cleo and Freya, cheaper "full bust" brands aimed at younger women.
On the up note, you can go to the Rack too. Get sized at Nordies for reference and you can even order online too.
Finally...my people! These models represent me. I am not heavy but I have a big chest so I wear a 32 G/H. Not everyone with a big cup size is overweight. I have not found a bra yet that fits, is flattering, and doesn't dig into my shoulders and skin. It feels good to see other women like me, although younger, and to find bras that may actually work.

Try that brand: Curvy Kate. Or Panache. Or Cleo. Or Freya. Or Fantasie.
To me those women are "thick." Maybe they wear Fantasie bras and panties, which are made for big busted women.
