Shelley appeared on many ads during her Supermodel tenure. One of them was for Ms. Lee. The Lee Company, a popular American denim jeans brand, came up with a label catering to women. The label catered to the women’s market and was a tribute to women. Ms. Lee was tailor-made for women, in fit and in style. In 1975, Shelley appeared in a Ms. Lee ad that featured "Join the Fiesta." She wore Ms. Lee's cucumber green, strawberry, squash and blueberry colored shirt over a pair of squash-colored jeans. Topping that was her jeans' matching jacket with shiny snaps. Heeled sandals and a casual fisherman's hat finished her look. A pair earrings and a choker accessorized her look. Shelley looked absolutely gorgeous.
