phrase-requestssingle-word-requests

My friend put on a gown and then started twirling and moving around. The dress started to swirl around…

I want to eloquently explain this. Can someone please help me with this?

"My friend started twirling around and her dress was spiraling around"?

Flare? "To open or spread outwards, as the sides of a bowl, a skirt, the mouth of a horn."

(As used in a lovely analogy from a paper on the sun's magnetic field: "Accordingly, the Sun with the heliosheet is like a bashful ballerina who is repeatedly trying to push her excessively high flaring skirt downward.").
