I wonder if it's possible to scale measuring by replacing measuring process by making a 3d scan (several versions - regular, with arms raised, etc.).

Then this data could be mapped to a simplified model which, in turn, could be used to figure out measurements of the bra.

Actually, having multiple views/angles and just capturing how the skin moves in 3d-space when forces are induced (through e.g. arm raising, jumping, or various other methods) should allow for inferring some elastic properties. This could allow detailed fitting with parametric stiffness/support trade offs.
