2 year old : Struggle over getting dressed

Question

I found this in the archives, from a column titled "Texting and Clothes War": "Tell her that her doctor says YOU are to pick out her clothes the night before. Wake her up in the morning, set a timer for 15 minutes, and leave her room. If she's not dressed by the time the timer goes off, then 'the doctor' says that means she needs more sleep and has to go to bed right after supper that night."
The child in the column was 4 years old, but I'm having the same issue with my almost-three yr old (34 mos.) Would this be appropriate for her, too? She is able to dress herself without help.
