1001 Fashion C

from 1001 Fashion & Needlecraft Ideas, 1971

In 1971, Shelley appeared on the pages of the fall issue of 1001 Fashion & Needlecraft Ideas. The magazine came out twice a year and contained the latest fashions, accessories, home décor and more that readers could sew, knit and crochet themselves. In the issue, Shelley appeared on the spread called "Some Like Them Hot," which featured the latest in shorts fashion - the "hot pants" (which bared the thighs) and what the mag called "warm pants" (an above-the-knee version of gaucho pants). Shelley wore a black and white crocheted version of the "hot pants". She topped it with a red long-sleeved collared shirt tied at the waist. She finished her look  with a pair of black tights and unique gladiator-inspired boots. As always, Shelley looked chic and fabulous.
