Gypsy Look 1971

from the Aldens 1971 Spring and Summer Book of Big Ideas

Shelley appeared on many catalogs throughout her modeling career. She appeared in Aldens 1971 Spring and Summer Book of Big Ideas. It was the height of the hippy/gypsy/bohemian look and Shelley modeled an outfit that reflected the times. Her lounge/sleep look dress had a strapped lace-embellished decolletage with elastic straps and underbust. It had a ruffled bottom with a lace trimmed hem. The long empire-cut dress came in a patchwork print fabric and could be worn with sandals or with just bare feet. With clips pinning her hair back, Shelley looked up-to-the-minute and good to go.
