Shelley appeared on many magazines (covers and spreads) during her Supermodel days. She appeared on many major mags such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Glamour, Mademoiselle, Seventeen and the like. She also appeared on bridal magazines such as Modern Bride. Modern Bride was and is a guide for brides that contains fashion options and information about everything that has to do with weddings, honeymoon destinations and marriage advice.

In 1975, Shelley appeared on a spread with fellow model Nancy Dutiel (who became the face and spokesmodel for the French cosmetics company LancĂ´me from April 1977 until the early 1980s). They both modeled various bridal gowns and bridesmaid dresses that were chic and up-to-the-minute. Shelley wore a pink bridesmaids' dress in crepe de chine by Christos for Galina. It had a high neckline with buttons and details going down the front of the bodice, bishop sleeves with cuff details, and a full skirt with a sash. She topped it off with a pink headpiece and veil by Christos for Galina as well. In the same spread, Shelley also wore a white bridal dress with a gathered chemise and a dropped shoulder yoke by Frank Masandrea for Bridal Couture. It had a high neckline with piping details, long bishop sleeves with piping-detailed cuffs, and a self-tie belt. She topped it off with a floral headpiece and veil by Jean Vincent Pulver for Bridal Couture. Matching strappy formal footwear and a silver necklace with a cross pendant finished her look. Shelley, as always, was absolutely beautiful in both of them. For more, check out: Modern Bride '75 A and Modern Bride '75 B
