The Charlie Art Collection

pics of Shelley for Charlie perfume, 1981

Shelley was THE Charlie perfume girl from 1976 to 1982. She was dubbed as THE quintessential Charlie Girl because she was the embodiment of the brand's ideal - gorgeous, sexy, young... as well as independent, confident and loving every minute of it. In 1981, she appeared in an ad for Charlie called "Spring Blooms in Charlie Country with The Charlie Art Collection." It was a promo for The Charlie Art Collection - which was a glamorous cosmetic kit containing 12 colors for the eyes, cheeks, lips and nails... plus a bottle of Charlie perfume spray. The kit also contained a LeRoy Neiman Cityscape Artwork (he named "Spring Blooms in Charlie Country") ready for framing. The promo offered customers a chance to purchase The Charlie Art Collection for only $10.00 with any  purchase from the Charlie collection. And, as always, Shelley was gorgeous in the fabulous ad.
