Odd option but look at Tokyo Bike Bisou. All 26" wheels, mixtes and built for shorter riders.

Not insanely expensive either. Depends on the riding she wants to do longer term, but it would be an improvement over gas pipe and not as £££ as custom painted Soma.

Any step through. I've been pondering the Soma, looks great except the red paintjob on the rim brake one would not be tolerated. The smallest rim brake size says it's made for 26, the disc one I think 27.
Bob jackson step through looks lovely but seems to be made for 700? My wife is only 5 feet 4 and gets on way better with smaller wheels.
Think I will continue fixing up this one bit by bit while saving for the Soma + new paintjob.
