Sizzle Stripes

Shelley with Pia Buggert and Joanne Vitelli
in an ad for Gay Gibson, 1972

Shelley did a lot of ads during her modeling days. One of them was for Gay Gibson, a clothing line for women. In the 1972 ad which featured outfits in "Sizzle Stripes," she wore a dress that could "put some spice in your Springtime life." It was a "sweet-and-sassy" knitted that looked as "sharp as a cinnamon candy stick." The skimmer dress came with its own matching tie-on belt. Matching big bow pumps, hose, hair pin and bracelets finished her look. And Shelley had a lot to smile about; she looked fabulous.
