1979 was a new era for the hit TV series Charlie's Angels. Supermodel Shelley Hack joined Jaclyn Smith and Cheryl Ladd to form Charlie's glamorous new Angel team. Nolan Miller, the wardrobe designer of the series, said, "I begged Aaron to hire Shelley. There was something about her I really liked; I was impressed with her Charlie perfume commercials and how she could create a look just by turning her collar up and putting her hands in her pockets." The wardrobe budget was increased to $20,000 per episode; and, according to People magazine, each Angel was to go through eight costume changes per episode (but it was more like three to five, with Farrah making the most - at eight changes - in "Fallen Angel"). Due to the request of the retained cast members for more time off, "solo" episodes were produced. These episodes focused on just one Angel, with the other Angels playing support, popping up here and there throughout the entire episode. Each Angel had three of these "solo" episodes, including guest Angel Farrah.

"Angels on Campus"
Shelley's first "solo" episode was "Angels on Campus." And, like Farrah, Shelley went through eight outfit changes throughout the episode. For her first scene, she wore a red long-sleeved blouse (with a band collar and padded shoulders) over a pair of fitted beige slacks (with pleats). A thin burgundy-colored woven belt with gold clasps finished her look. Gold earrings accessorized her look. She next wore a red wrap dress (with a jacket collar and matching sash belt) and topped it off with a black blazer with red piping around the collar, down the front, and at the pocket openings. A gold necklace and gold bracelet accessorized her look. For the next scene, she wore the same dress sans the blazer. She next wore a white turtleneck sweater (with a chunky neckline) over a pair of black jeans and topped it off with a blue suede jacket. She finished her look with a pair of black high-heeled sandals with ankle straps. For the next scene, she wore the same outfit sans the jacket. She next wore a blue Kappa Omega Psi T-shirt over a pair of blue jeans with the hems folded above the ankles. She finished her look with a pair of blue sneakers (with white laces) and a beige nylon belt. A beige nylon rubber band on her hair and a whistle with a beige neck cord accessorized her look. She next wore (in Charlie's Angels tradition) a white towel. She next wore a long-sleeved plaid shirt over a pair of maroon slacks and topped it off with a matching maroon-colored sweater. She finished her look with a pair of maroon-colored high-heeled sandals. A gray leather shoulder bag with tan leather details accessorized her look. She next wore a white boat-neck see-thru dress with floral details (with elbow-length sleeves, a pleated skirt and a self-tie belt) over a white slip dress. A gold necklace accessorized her look. For the epilogue, she wore an aquamarine dress with a high collar and long puffed sleeves. Gold earrings accessorized her look.
