Body Suit

Shelley in a spread
for the JCPenney Fall and Winter 1972 catalog

Shelley appeared on many spread throughout the JCPenney Fall and Winter 1972 catalog. In the spread for junior misses, she modeled a couple of body suits. Body suits were popular in the 1970s as fashions were more body-conscious and body-hugging. They were usually worn with a skirt, shorts or pants.

She wore the Layered Look Body Suit which looked like your favorite sweater and shirt combination which had long sleeves and a back zipper. Matching clips on her hair finished her look. She also wore the Turtleneck Ribbed Body Suit which had raglan sleeves and a back zipper. A matching skirt and footwear finished her look.
