Cardigan Suit

Spring and Summer 1973 catalog

Shelley appeared on many spreads throughout the Simpsons-Sears Spring and Summer 1973 catalog. In the spread called "Our Finest Top-Fashion Double-Knit Sets", she modeled the Cardigan Suit. The completely new-look suit was a three-piece set made up of a V-neck cardigan jacket with chrome metal buttoning and trim, a pair of pull-on flared pants with an elasticized waist and, underneath the jacket, a sleeveless white shirt with an exaggerated convertible collar. Buckled footwear and a matching bracelet finished her look. And Shelley looked sensational.
