The girls are not transforming anything. Something is transforming them. The verb is therefore passive voice - the subject off the verb is 'receiving/suffering' the action.
The word 'transformed' is the third form (past participle) of the verb 'transform'. Third forms can be used adjectivally, and some, such as 'bored' and 'tired' are accepted as adjectives when used as such, but in your example we have a pretty clear passive form, in my opinion.
