Shelley became Charlie's newest Angel in 1979, and she jumped from being THE Charlie Girl to becoming Charlie's latest Superstar Angel. Supermodel Shelley's casting signaled a new glamorous era for the Angels. Series executive producer Aaron Spelling proclaimed, "We’re bringing back the glamour." Nolan Miller, the wardrobe designer of the series, said, "I was impressed with her Charlie perfume commercials and how she could create a look just by turning her collar up and putting her hands in her pockets." The clothing budget per episode was raised to $20,000 with each Angel going through eight outfits per episode; and latest Angel trio (Shelley with Jaclyn Smith and Cheryl Ladd) was molded into Charlie's most sophisticated-looking team.
