Visions of Denmark dance in our heads. A couple of images come to mind, actually: there are the fluid lines of Danish Modern design, and the haunted fog brooding over Prince Hamlet’s Elsinore Castle. And then there’s native clothing designer Camilla Stærk, whose name calls to mind jolts of graphic color, sharp, unexpected proportions, and uncluttered ease. Since relocating to New York two seasons ago, Stærk has introduced more American ideas to her clothes, while maintaining their essential Stærk-ness. She draws upon her native land to create clothing with a darkly romantic mood, adored by PJ Harvey, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Sarah Jessica Parker, Liv Tyler and Julianne Moore.
