a closeup of Shelley from an ad for Gay Gibson, 1969
Shelley was one of the busiest models from the 1960s to the 1970s. She appeared in countless ads, catalogs and magazine spreads. In 1969, she appeared in an ad for Gay Gibson. The fashion label came out of Kansas City, Missouri, and was owned by
the Gernes Garment Company. Gay Gibson was just a label though, no person
by that name designed the clothes. In their ad dubbed called "French Kids," Shelley wore an outfit in Parisian pink. She wore The Swing-Shift, a pink shift dress with snips and strips of white vinyl. A matching white watch, white knee socks and white footwear finished her look. Shelley looked space-age chic.
