Did you try to see how she fits on your Orca? that would give you some good info on what geometry suits her best.
As per budget, BMC may be out of your spending limit as well - but I would still call the nearest dealer and see if they have any suggestions or offers. That would be full carbon custom.
Long legs with shorter reach... have you looked at the geometry on Lapierre bikes? Also, take a look at the stock carbon Bianchi that is women specific. I think the model name is daniela or daniele, and it should be within your budget with Campy (although I believe the stock one comes with veloce or chorus, not record). If I remember correctly it's the same full carbon setup of the 928 t cube but it has a shorter top tube.
