Shelley appeared on many spreads for many catalogs from the late '60s to the mid-'70s. Mail-order catalogs were at the height of its popularity at the time. They were big-book size publications that contained a list of general merchandise from, usually, a department store that were available for purchase and delivery straight to the homes of consumers. Everything from homeware to toys were featured in these catalogs... as well as garments and the latest fashion pieces. Many Supermodels - like Cheryl Tiegs, Beverly Johnson, Patti Hansen and Shelley Smith, just to name a few - appeared in the most popular catalogs of the era. Many models who eventually became actresses also appeared in these catalogs - like Veronica Hamel, Erin Grey, Kim Basinger and Pam Dawber.

Fall And Winter 1975 catalog
Shelley appeared on many spreads throughout the JCPenney Fall and Winter 1975 catalog. In the section called "Look Great Without Spending A Fortune," she modeled fashion pieces that could be incorporated into any woman's present wardrobe to give it a fresh, new, high-end and updated look. And, of course, the pieces were so budget-friendly, women wouldn't think twice about buying an armful of them. Over a white long-sleeved shirt, she wore the Pinwale Corduroy Pants which had an elasticized waistband, fly-front zipper, extended tab-and-button closure and flared legs. She topped her outfit with the Multi-Toned Striped Cardigan which had a V-neck, long ribbed sleeves, rib-knit turn-back cuffs and rib-knit bottom and button-placket front. She finished her outfit with the Corduroy Slip-on Shoes that had 4-inch wedged heels. And Shelley looked chic, high-end and so gorgeous on the spread.
