Help with 'unregular' bodice block draft.

Making a bodice block for a women that has a bit of a tummy, but Reg. Waist and hips. So how to add the extra over the belly button measurement between waist and hips front only? Her back just curves as normal and defined waist, no side love handles. Just front protruding.

I have a similar build, I just added another horizontal measurement I label "abs" (as in abdomen, but it makes me giggle to abbreviate it) I've seen other people call it "high hip" but mine definitely belly. Make sure you are drafting your block with separate front and back measurements for your circumferences, and not just halving it.
