Imagine
a dark vixen dressed in leather and lace. Pulsating with sex appeal she
paints the town red in a pair of spike-heeled stilettos, drinking and
dancing into the wee hours of the night. Naturally, the next morning
exhausted and sick with a pounding headache, she barely has enough time
to slip into a respectable pencil skirt and demure jacket before catching
a cab to work. At the office she hides behind thick tortoise-shell glasses,
but her piercing kohl smeared eyes, tussled tresses and lace stockings
give away a naughty secret.
Paying homage to the duality of existence,
Camilla Staerk constructs a fictional heroine, who is a corporate secretary
by day and femme fatale seductress by night. Clothed in draped leather
skirts, pleated minis, abbreviated jackets, belted jumpsuits and wool
trench coats the Staerk woman travels back and forth between two different
personas. She is a chameleon, who can carry a black fishnet top or a
simple grey dress with the same ease.
