The last time Sakuya made clothes for Flandre was in 1867, but the measurements those clothes were based on were far older. After all, they hadn't changed since 1520 (and weren't expected to ever do so). They could well have been the last set taken before she fell ill, but even if Sakuya had wanted to update them, as you note, The World would have made it possible.

Besides, even when she was mad, Flan wasn't the Tasmanian Devil. She had more lucid turns, particularly around the new moon, and she wasn't automatically hostile to anyone but Remilia. I'm not saying it would have been a task to be undertaken casually, but Sakuya and Flandre did cross paths a few times during the former's original tenure, they weren't complete strangers to each other. Particularly once Sakuya was the only member of staff remaining, it would have been inevitable sooner or later.
