step through makes huge sense if you and your partner have little height diff and want to share the bike but just changing saddle height

What are everyone's thoughts on a Gravel step-through frame? My girlfriend has suffered with me buying her practical bikes for her needs. Her sister just brought a Pashley Princess which my partner is very envious of. She has a 22mile round trip along the canal and over Alexandra Palace, so a Pashley Princess simply not going to work (well.)
What I'd like to go is to make a stereotypically feminine bike but can function well. A step-through bike that can take 35c tyres with full mudguards, disc brakes and internal routing. Thoughts? It has to be relatively stiff as she does triathlons too :)
