Splice-Ups

Shelley in a spread for Simplicity Home Catalog fall/winter 1971

Shelley appeared in a couple of spreads for Simplicity Home Catalog fall/winter 1971. The spread called "Splice-Ups" featured fashions enhanced with color slicing, using color blocks for different parts of a garment. It was the freshest look of the season and the spread showed readers the wonderful color combinations they could try.

Shelley wore a two-tone raglan-sleeved pullover top, in blue for the bodice and yellow for the sleeves, over a matching blue skirt. It had the added feature of a butterfly applique on the chest- and in yellow, of course, to complement her top. A matching belt, printed socks and hair clip finished her look. And Shelley looked super in her slice-up ensemble.
