a closeup of Shelley from the Simplicity pattern 6027 package cover, 1973
Shelley appeared on many Simplicity package covers from the 1960s to the 1970s. In 1973, she appeared in the package cover for pattern no. 6027. It contained patterns for a raglan dress or a top and pants. The pattern could be sewn in two versions, as a dress or as a top and pants ensemble. The dress (version 1) or top (version 2) had a back zipper and a high round neckline with a slit in center and a loop button closing. The pants (for version 2) had an elasticized waist and wide legs. Shelley modeled version 1, the raglan dress, in a solid colored fabric and contrasting stitching on the neckline, sleeve and hem. Chunky-heeled pumps, a woven tote and wooden bracelets finished her look. An argyle umbrella added a touch of color. And Shelley looked totally fab.
