a closeup of Shelley from an ad

Shelley appeared on many ads during her Supermodel days. In 1971, she appeared in an ad called "Fortrel Motivates: The Suitables." It featured fun military-inspired suit-style fashions that were made by various designers and clothes manufacturers. They were all made from Fortrel, a polyester fiber. Polyester was a popular clothing fabric at the time because it didn't need to be ironed as it was wrinkle proof, was long-lasting and was cheaper that natural fabrics. In other words, it was a very practical fabric choice.
