from Bride's magazine, Dec 1966/Jan 1967

Bride's magazine was and is one of the most widely circulated mags that cater to brides and all their needs. It contains bridal and bridal-entourage fashion tips (as well as groom and groomsmen), food and nutrition writeups, health and fitness advice, beauty tips, planning and location articles and more. Shelley appeared on the pages of Bride's magazine's December 1966/January 1967 issue. She appeared on several spreads throughout the issue. In the spread called "Jeunesse Is: Slips Showing - By Design" (which translates to "Youth Is: Slips Showing - By Design"), she modeled a youthful wedding gown with a Sabrina neckline and notched cap sleeves. The modified empire-waist slip-style column gown had embossed details and satin ribbons around the upper chest and near the hem. An elbow-length veil, white opera gloves and matching white footwear finished her look. Pearly earrings and a lovely bouquet of flowers accessorized and completed her look. Shelley looked like the perfect June bride.
