Slink into These C

a closeup of Shelley
from a Seventeen magazine spread, 1970

Shelley appeared on the cover as well as in many spreads throughout Seventeen magazine's November 1970 issue. In the spread called "Slink into Some Glossed-up Velvet Starstuff... It's Your Big Scene", she modeled dresses, both long and short, in clingy panne velvet (reminicent of the leading ladies of Hollywood's Golden era) that could be worn during those special evenings. She wore a sultry glowing evening gown of purple velvet textured in diamonds. It had a sinuous silhouette with soft puffy long sleeves and a V-neckline. It had a low ruffled hem as well. It was by Cottager. She finished her outfit with a Freirich choker and diamond rings by Napier - all faux, of course. But even then, Shelley looked absolutely fabulous.
