Shelley appeared on many magazines and catalogs during her tenure as Supermodel in the 1970s. She appeared on many covers, fashion spreads, and sewing patterns for McCall's... for their magazines, catalogs, and pattern covers. McCall's was a monthly American women's magazine that started out as a small-format magazine but eventually grew to become a glossy large-format magazine. The magazine initially featured just sewing patterns but through the years expanded to include writeups on homemaking and crafts, food and nutrition, health and fitness, beauty and fashion advice, and fictional stories. McCall's later came up with big-book catalogs that featured their latest fashion patterns. Shelley appeared in McCall's pattern catalog for October 1972.

In the issue, Shelley appeared in the spread that featured dresses for the fashion-forward young misses of the 1970s. In the spread, she wore McCall's pattern number 3301. It was a pattern for a pullover dress that could be done in two lengths or even made into a top. It could be done with short or long sleeves and with sleeves that were cut in. A pattern for matching pants was also included. Shelley wore a printed version of the pullover dress, mini in length, and with long, cut-in sleeves. Braid trim across the neckline, around the cut-in sleeves, and the cuff-ends embellished the dress. Matching hose and heeled lace-up footwear finished her look. And Shelley looked like a chic, fashion-forward young miss of the 1970s.
