I have Measure Metrics, but have never been terribly successful using it. I doubt if that is the fault of the program though - I think you have to register, and I probably forgot, and I am hopeless at reading instructions - not to mention actually working at making the program do what I want. I don't think it was a lot of money, so if it helps, try it - perhaps even ask the merchant. I'm pretty sure that cup size was not a parameter, though. But despite being intensely interested in female anatomy and underwear since childhood, I can't in all honestly say I have ever truly understood the arcane mysteries of women's bra sizes (and I suspect a lot of women don't either - no offence intended).
I am old enough to recall the 36-24-36 norm, like you, although it never really appealed to me.The Venus de Milo is said to be 51, 38, 47, which would be about 32, 24, 30, so nothing like 36, 24, 36 - not that the hips can be other than an estimate. Even so, she is one of the classical beauties, although I always preferred the Nike of Samothrace, whose vital statistics do not seem to have been measured.....
I certainly dislike the overblown features that are so prevalent in the world of 3D models and imagery - women are rarely like them. Massive mammalian attributes are anathema.to me, and I so wish that more natural lips were available as the norm - I find it difficult to impossible to get lips that do not look as if they are pouty. A recently-issued figure has what in the UK are described as trout lips. I will not be buying that figure, because the lips are taken to absurd (and I think ugly) proportions.
But we all have different tastes, so who am I to point a finger, let alone many?
