i'd say 12, cos 34 fits size 10, so 36 would prob go with 12.

What I would do would be to measure yourself around the bust at the fullest part. Then compare the measurement to a sizing chart.

I would err on the side of a 14 to be honest, I have the same bra size and that's what I take, however there can be factors that would give you a different result.

Size 14. The bust part of many dresses is often a little on the small side.
