Does anybody know of an app/website that can help with body measurements?

Like I'm trying to write the basics for the character, but I don't want the body to be unproportionate. Is it possible for there to be some kind of website where you can put in body measurements and it can show you what that will look like?

Body Proportion

[aardvarkist13]

If you are searching for perfection

do know that "... [just because] the study disproves the relationship doesn't mean belief in it is likely to wane. We want to believe a link exists between the size of the penis and some other appendage because our desire to see patterns where none exist leads us to assume the human body is built on a precise scale, that our creator fashioned everything in exact proportion. 

For all our posturing about our passion for new frontiers, new knowledge, and boldly going where no man has gone before, we humans very much want to live in an orderly universe where everything clearly relates to everything else and is easily understandable. 

Nature, however, has other ideas. Even individuals differ from side to side — on the same person, one hand will always be bigger, as will one foot. One testicle will always hang lower (almost always the left), and with women one breast will always be larger than its mate. 

Proportioning is chaotic within a single body; across two or more people it is less consistent. Yet still we persist in attempting to isolate reliable patterns because our need for comfort forces us to search for a gestalt even where we know none can exist." --Barbara "willy wonka'd" Mikkelson (article)

I went shopping today because I had some coupons, and I was in the petites department some of the staffers kept giving me odd looks, since purely heightwise I'm not actually a petite and was towering over most of the other people there. However, if you look closely my legs are petite, meaning that I have to buy petite pants or the cuffs drag on the ground. One incidentally nice thing about petite pants is that you're more likely to find ones designed for someone with a curvier body like myself.

And what makes it more awkward is that I actually have a very long waist proportion-wise, to the point that I've occasionally sat next to friends who are in fact taller than me, but when we're sitting down it looks the other way around. So I have to shop in two different departments depending on which part of my body I'm shopping for. The short legs are from my dad's side of the family, where most of the women are fairly small, but my upper body seems to be from my mom's side, where they tend to be taller.

I have no idea how the genetics worked on that, but that's just how it turned out.
