a closeup of Shelley
from a spread on Seventeen magazine, September 1967
Shelley was a part-time model in the 1960s, when she was still a student and her education was her priority. She would usually model during her summer breaks. Shelley said, "Modeling was a great summer job. It beat waitressing." She added, “The Ford Agency would send out a little card that said, ‘Shelley Hack will be back June 1.’” Shelley was represented by Ford Models Inc. throughout her modeling career.

in Seventeen magazine, September 1967
In 1967, she appeared on the pages of Seventeen magazine's September issue, in the spread called "Add It Up: Black + White + Vest" which featured outfits that proved the pow of black and white. Her outfit consisted of a black sleeveless turtleneck pullover, a matching black skirt, a white vest and a black, white and camel striped blazer - all by Aileen. A knitted hat by Chic Maid, stockings by Adler and footwear by VanEli finished her look. Shelley looked positively chic in her black + white + vest ensemble.
