Pretty Tops for the Holidays A

for Glamour magazine, Dec 1974

After finishing her schooling, Shelley signed on full-time at her modeling agency, Ford Models Inc., and became one of the highest-paid Supermodels in the United States... booking countless fashion spreads, print and TV ads, as well as magazine covers including Glamour, Mademoiselle and Vogue. In 1974, she appeared on the pages of Glamour's December issue. In the spread called "Season Specials To Top Pants and Skirts," she modeled the prettiest tops for that holiday season that had a special hand-worked feeling... all of which had lace, crochet or beautiful openwork details (trivia: the photos used in the spread were taken by Shelley's then boyfriend Steen Svensson). Shelley wore a soft melon-colored long-sleeved tank top trimmed with fine lace by Miss Ingenue. She wore it over a similar colored rib knit pencil skirt by Rose Hips and finished it with a belt by Jose Cotel. A pin by DeBare Saunders and bracelets by Catherine Stein accessorized her look. And Shelley looked gorgeous, chic, and ready for to celebrate the holidays.
