Long 'N' Short

a closeup of Shelley from a spread
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 "Junior Bazaar: Long 'N' Short," she modeled a long dress that was perfect for that spring and summer season. She wore the Bolero, Long Dress Ensemble in polyester double knit. The dress had a lined bust, an empire waistline and a low square-cut  back with a zipper. The bolero had dyed-to-match lace trim and tied at the front. Shelley looked summery and sexy in it.
