Recycling Wardrobes B

Shelley was one of the busiest models in the 1960s and 1970s. She appeared in countless ads, catalogs and magazine spreads. In September of 1971, she appeared in a spread for Co-ed magazine called "Recycling 4 Wardrobes Under $100." It featured four wardrobe sets that could be reused and rotated and recycled - just like aluminum, glass and paper (Eco-notes were even added to the spread for info in how to recycle the recyclables).

The wardrobe pieces in the spread were items that readers could wear and wear and wear over and over and over. Shelley wore a burgundy jeans suit by Levi Strauss which was made up of a pair of trim cut jeans and a Battle jacket. She wore a turtleneck top topped with an argyle tank, both from J.C. Penney. A belt by Dame and footwear by Viner finished her look. Shelley looked chic and ready to recycle.
