Wallpaper-Print Shirt

on Simpsons-Sears Spring and Summer 1975 catalog

Simpsons-Sears was a joint venture between the Simpsons department store chain in Canada and the Sears department store chain in the US. The joint venture began in around 1953. Shelley appeared on many catalogs for Simpsons-Sears in the 1970s. She appeared in several spreads throughout Simpsons-Sears Spring and Summer 1975 catalog. In the spread called "Sportwear Shop '75", she modeled the Wallpaper-Print shirt. The conversation-piece classic guaranteed the wearer to be anything but a wallflower. The smart shirt had a crisp collar and long sleeves with two-button cuffs. It could be worn with pants or a skirt -  on its own or under a blazer. And as always, Shelley looked sensational.
