Any of the small wings that have been recommended will work great. Why the aluminum BP? Does she use less than 8lbs with a normal BC? If not, I'd go with a steel plate. The combination of a steel plate and AL tank is pretty nice.

With a 3/2 wetsuit and an AL 80 in the ocean she uses 7 pounds. I won a steel Hammerhead BP last year which just seemed heavy for her they switched it for an AL BP. If she uses a steel tank, she will not need weight but she may still need a few pouinds with the Al. Right now, I would rather her be a little light (and use a couple of pounds) than heavy.
 
My duaghter dives with a similar wetsuit and tank and currently with a traditional BC. I recently bought an Oxycheq travel backplate and Mach V #30 wing for myself but she was determined to try it out. Well the bad news is that she loved it.

Damn this is getting expensive!!!
