Shelley has appeared on many spreads for many catalogs from the late '60s to the mid-'70s. Many Supermodels at the time appeared in the most popular catalogs during the era like Cheryl Tiegs, Beverly Johnson, Patti Hansen and Shelley Smith, just to name a few. Many models who eventually became actresses also appeared in the catalogs like Veronica Hamel, Erin Grey, Kim Basinger and Pam Dawber.

Shelley appeared on the pages of many catalogs for Montgomery Ward. In 1971, she appeared on the Montgomery Ward Fall and Winter 1971 catalog in a spread called "Body Focus." The spread featured the latest in hosiery, leotards and body suits. She modeled a scoop-necked long-sleeved smooth-knit leotard with a snap crotch and a pair of opaque stretch tights. She also modeled a body suit and tights ensemble in a ribbed fabric. The body suit had a turtleneck, a back zipper and a snap crotch. The tights had an elastic waistband. In both, Shelley looked super stylish.
