Like streakers, dodging about to avoid capture at last (8)
I believe the answer is:
starkers
'like' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
(Other definitions for starkers that I've seen before include "23 [NUDIST]" , "Quite naked (colloq.)" , "exposed" , "Not wearing a stitch" , "Slangily nude - starts being stellar" .)
