There is something irresistible about a long, full, fluid skirt.

It makes a girl... want to twirl.

Not that there aren't already lots of reasons to like Twirlygirl, a line of decidedly fun, ebuliiently colorful and delightfully creative clothes for fashionistas in training.

To put Twirlygirl to the test we recruited little Lucie Liebler of Wilmington, Del. Lucie's mom Kym slipped one of Twirlygirl's reversible dresses (wow, two dresses in one!) over Lucie's head.

Lucie smiled and her brown eyes sparkled as she took in the rainbow stripes and fanciful florals on the skirt. She ran inquisitive fingers over the fluttery fabric.

And then Lucie began to spin!

She skipped on the green grass. She giggled. She flipped the folds of the skirt up and down like butterfly wings.

Moms can expect an equally exultant response when they send their little girls off to the first day of school in a Twirlygirl. Expect to pay about $70 for a dress and $52 for a skirt.

You can buy Twirlygirl online or at one of a number of children's boutiques, including Born Yesterday and Lolli Lolli, both on Walnut Street in Philadelphia; Lollipops and Gumdrops in Huntington Valley; Kid 'N Kaboodle in Dresher; and Caviar Dreams in Blue Bell.
