Sweet Corset Commission

I'm making this underbust corset for an impossibly tiny friend of mine. It's made of a Japanese printed fabric with ridiculous animals and fruit and rainbows, with a red and cream ticking stripe used as a flat piping between the panels. The same ticking will be used as the binding.

It's got a zipper because busks are annoying, and this isn't intended as a tight-lacing corset. It will have silver grommets, and probably either red or cream twill tape to lace. It will have spiral steel boning, but I left it bone free for the second fitting because it is currently 25" and I am worried it is too large (again, this girl is impossibly tiny...) and I seem to have misplaced her measurements somewhere.
