Young Expressions I

closeups of Shelley from a spread
for the Spiegel Spring and Summer 1972 catalog

Shelley appeared on many different catalogs during her modeling career. One of them was Spiegel which was a direct marketing retailer that sent their buyers to Parisian fashion shows in order to check out the latest fashion trends and introduce them to the American market. In 1972, she appeared on various spreads on the Spiegel Spring and Summer 1972 catalog. In the Young Expressions section, she wore various outfits that were on trend during that season. She wore the "T-Shirt Slink", a body-hugging knit dress that was so easy to wear and was ready for any kind of summer action. It had a jewel neckline, long sleeves and a ring-fastened belt that casually encircled the waist. It was above-the-knee in length and zipped at the back. Matching "Kicky Espadrilles" with wrap around trims finished her look. And Shelley looked sunny and summer-ready.
