Shelley appeared in many issues of Vogue during her tenure as a Supermodel. In the mags October 1974 issue, she appeared on the spread called "The Glamour of Gold" where she modeled simple seasonless evening wear in black with touches of gold.

She modeled a black gown that was perfect for big evenings. It was a long, soft, slinky number with a blouson top and tiny string straps by Shannon Rodgers for Jerry Silverman. A golden belt, some gold jewelry and a sliver of gold sandals finished her look. She looked perfect for those big formal holiday evening gatherings.

She also modeled a look for those more casual evenings, of course in black as well. She wore a shirt in black jacquard crêpe de Chine over a pair of evening twill trousers which were available at Bonwit Teller. She also wore a black chiffon scarf by Hermes under the collar. Gold accessories around her neck and wrists as well as golden sandals finished her look. And Shelley looked sensational.
