little girls' room
Powder room euphemism
Little girls' room is a coy euphemism for a women's restroom, typically used when excusing oneself in polite company: I need to visit the little girls' room.
The phrase sounds deliberately prim and old-fashioned, sometimes used ironically.
The male equivalent is little boys' room.
