Perfect Partners

Shelley in a spread for the Spiegel Fall & Winter 1972 values catalog

As with the other top models of her day, Shelley appeared on many catalogs throughout her modeling career. One of them was for the Spiegel Fall & Winter 1972 values catalog. The mail order catalog featured Spiegel's most value-for-your-dollar items. Shelley appeared in the spread called "The Perfect Partners" which featured a two-piece outfit that wasn't just fashion-forward, it was affordable as well. She wore a pullover tunic-length top that had a shirt collar, long sleeves, back neck zipper and a self sash over a pair of stovepipe-style pants with an elastic waistband and flared legs. Pumps with faux-buckles finished her look. Shelley looked perfect in both of them.

Star Journalist

Shelley as Jackie Shea in Jack and Mike, 1986

Shelley's third stab at series TV was Jack and Mike. It was about a star journalist, Jackie Shea, who was married to a famous restaurateur, Mike Brennan, and who was trying to find time for both her work and her man. The series was filmed on location in Chicago. Shelley loved doing Jack and Mike. She loved the premise of the show and how it dealt with the problems women at the time were facing - finding a good balance between work and family life. Women's Lib was a thing of the '70s; and now in the '80s, women were faced with the situations that resulted from that liberation. Shelley herself was one of those women.

Shelley appeared on many print ads during her Supermodel days. In 1977, she appeared in an ad for Mary Martin. In it, she wore the "snazzy jumper" by the designer. It was made up of a simple V'd neck jumper dress (with soft shoulder shirring and pleating at the waist) and a gently ribbed long-sleeved top with a cowl neck. A matching pair of above-the-knee boots completed her look. A simple bracelet accessorized it. And as always, Shelley looked fab!
