Can I make Italian buttercream ahead of time?

Sorry for flagrantly abusing AIBU for traffic. I know IABU for that alone!

I’m making a cake to be eaten on Sunday. I’ve decided to go for Italian meringue buttercream.

Can I make the buttercream tonight and then ice the cake on Sunday morning? Or will it totally deflate / go soupy?

Also, once the cake is iced does it need to be eaten immediately or will the icing hold it’s shape / consistency for a few hours?

Thanks!
