Million Dollars ($150,000,000) of 7 7/8% Senior Notes due July 15, 2009
(collectively, the "Securities");

         WHEREAS, each Guarantor is, directly or indirectly, a material domestic
Subsidiary of the Company and materially benefits from the Securities issued
under the Indenture;

         WHEREAS, the Company has entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of
October 20, 2004 (herein, as the same may be amended, supplemented or modified
from time to time called the "Credit Agreement"), among the Company, various
lenders party thereto (the "Lenders"), Bank of America, N.A., as Trustee, and
Banc of America Securities LLC, as sole lead arranger and sole book manager;

         WHEREAS, the Credit Agreement requires that each Guarantor execute and
deliver a guaranty agreement as more fully provided for therein (herein as the
same may be amended, supplemented or modified from time to time called the
"Credit Agreement Guaranty") with respect to the Company's obligations under the
Credit Agreement and related documents; and

         WHEREAS, the Guarantors have deemed it advisable and in the best
interest of the Guarantors to voluntarily execute and deliver this Guaranty
Agreement to the Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders, it being
understood that this Guaranty Agreement shall automatically terminate concurrent
with any release or termination of the Credit Agreement Guaranty.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

         1. GUARANTY. Subject to the termination provisions in Section 22
hereof, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally,
absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Securityholders the payment and performance in full of the

<PAGE>

Guaranteed Liabilities (as defined below). For all purposes of this Guaranty
Agreement, "Guaranteed Liabilities" means: (a) the Company's prompt payment in
full, when due or declared due and at all such times, of all obligations and all
other amounts pursuant to the terms of the Indenture and Securities and all
other documents heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter owing,
arising, due or payable from the Company to the Trustee, including principal,
interest, premiums and fees (including, but not limited to, costs, expenses or
disbursements of counsel); and (b) the Company's prompt, full and faithful
performance, observance and discharge of each and every agreement, undertaking,
covenant and provision to be performed, observed or discharged by the Company
under the Indenture, the Securities and all other documents delivered therewith.
The Guarantors' obligations to the Trustee under this Guaranty Agreement are
hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Guarantors' Obligations" and, with
respect to each Guarantor individually, the "Guarantor's Obligations."
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Guarantor individually with
respect to its Guarantor's Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount
equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder
subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or
any comparable provisions of any applicable state law. Each Guarantor agrees
that it is jointly and severally, directly and primarily liable (subject to the
limitation in the immediately preceding sentence) for the Guaranteed
Liabilities.

         2. PAYMENT. If the Company shall default in payment or performance of
any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, whether principal, interest, premium, fee
(including, but not limited to, loan fees and fees, costs, expenses or
disbursements of counsel), or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due,
and after expiration of any applicable grace period, whether according to the
terms of the Indenture, by acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Indenture, then any
or all of the Guarantors will, upon demand thereof by the Trustee, fully pay to
the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trustee, subject to any restriction on each
Guarantor's Obligations set forth in Section 1 hereof, an amount equal to all
the Guaranteed Liabilities then due and owing.

         3. ABSOLUTE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS. This is a guaranty of payment and
not of collection. The Guarantors' Obligations under this Guaranty Agreement
shall be joint and several, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each
Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense
to its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement, the Indenture and the
Securities to which it is a party by reason of:

                  (a) any lack of legality, validity or enforceability of the
         Indenture, of any of the Securities, or of any other agreement or
         instrument created, providing security for, or otherwise relating to
         any of the Guarantors' Obligations, any of the Guaranteed Liabilities,
         or any other guaranty of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities (the
         Indenture and Securities and all such other agreements and instruments
         being collectively referred to as the "Related Agreements");

                  (b) any action taken under any of the Related Agreements, any
         exercise of any right or power therein conferred, any failure or
         omission to enforce any right conferred thereby, or any waiver of any
         covenant or condition therein provided;

<PAGE>

                  (c) any acceleration of the maturity of any of the Guaranteed
         Liabilities, of the Guarantor's Obligations of any other Guarantor, or
         of any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the
         Related Agreements;

                  (d) any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse in
         perfection, disposal, deterioration in value, or impairment of any
         security for any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, for any of the
         Guarantor's Obligations of any Guarantor, or for any other obligations
         or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements;

                  (e) any dissolution of the Company or any Guarantor or any
         other party to a Related Agreement, or the combination or consolidation
         of the Company or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related
         Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of
         any assets of the Company or any Guarantor or any other party to a
         Related Agreement;

                  (f) any extension (including without limitation extensions of
         time for payment), renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of,
         any acceptance of late or partial payments under, or any change in the
         amount of any borrowings available under, the Indenture, any of the
         Securities or any other Related Agreement, in whole or in part;

                  (g) the existence, addition, modification, termination,
         reduction or impairment of value, or release of any other guaranty of
         the Guaranteed Liabilities (including without limitation the
         Guarantor's Obligations of any other Guarantor and obligations arising
         under any other Guaranty now or hereafter in effect);

                  (h) any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other
         consent to any change in or departure from any term or provision
         contained in the Indenture, any Securities or any other Related
         Agreement, including without limitation any term pertaining to the
         payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, any of the
         Guarantor's Obligations of any other Guarantor, or any of the
         obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement;

                  (i) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice
         to or knowledge of any Guarantor) which may or might in any manner or
         to any extent vary the risks of such Guarantor, or might otherwise
         constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of,
         a surety or a guarantor, including without limitation any right to
         require or claim that resort be had to the Company or any other
         Guarantor or any collateral in respect of the Guaranteed Liabilities or
         Guarantors' Obligations.

It is the express purpose and intent of the parties hereto that this Guaranty
Agreement and the Guarantors' Obligations hereunder and under each Guaranty
Joinder Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment as herein provided.

         4. CURRENCY AND FUNDS OF PAYMENT. All Guarantors' Obligations will be
paid in lawful currency of the United States of America and in immediately
available funds, regardless of any law, regulation or decree now or hereafter in
effect that might in any manner affect the Guaranteed Liabilities, or the rights
of the Trustee with respect thereto as against the Company, or cause or permit

<PAGE>

to be invoked any alteration in the time, amount or manner of payment by the
Company of any or all of the Guaranteed Liabilities.

         5. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2
hereof, in the event that there shall occur and be continuing an Event of
Default, then, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 of
the Indenture, the Guarantors' Obligations shall become due and payable.

         6. TRUSTEE. In acting hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to all
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it under
the Indenture.

         7. SUITS. Each Guarantor from time to time shall pay to the Trustee for
the benefit of the Trustee, on demand, at the Trustee's place of business set
forth in the Indenture or such other address as the Trustee shall give notice of
to such Guarantor, the Guarantors' Obligations as they become or are declared
due, and in the event such payment is not made forthwith, the Trustee may
proceed to suit against any one or more or all of the Guarantors. At the
Trustee's election, one or more and successive or concurrent suits may be
brought hereon by the Trustee against any one or more or all of the Guarantors,
whether or not suit has been commenced against the Company, any other Guarantor,
or any other Person and whether or not the Trustee have taken or failed to take
any other action to collect all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities or
have taken or failed to take any actions against any collateral securing payment
or performance of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities, and
irrespective of any event, occurrence, or condition described in Section 3
hereof.

         8. SET-OFF AND WAIVER. Each Guarantor waives any right to assert
against the Trustee as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or cross
claim in respect of its Guarantor's Obligations, any defense (legal or
equitable) or other claim which such Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter
have against the Company or the Trustee without waiving any additional defenses,
set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise available to such Guarantor.

         9. WAIVER OF NOTICE; SUBROGATION.

                  (a) Each Guarantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by
         law notice of the following events or occurrences: (i) acceptance of
         this Guaranty Agreement; (ii) presentment, demand, default,
         non-payment, partial payment and protest; and (iii) any other event,
         condition, or occurrence described in Section 3 hereof. Each Guarantor
         agrees that the Trustee may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter do
         any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such
         times as the Trustee, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems
         advisable, without in any way or respect impairing, affecting, reducing
         or releasing such Guarantor from its Guarantor's Obligations, and each
         Guarantor hereby consents to each and all of the foregoing events or
         occurrences.

                  (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that payment or performance
         by such Guarantor of its Guarantor's Obligations under this Guaranty
         Agreement may be enforced by the Trustee on behalf of the Trustee upon
         demand by the Trustee to such Guarantor without the Trustee being
         required, such Guarantor expressly waiving to the extent permitted by

<PAGE>

         law any right it may have to require the Trustee, to (i) prosecute
         collection or seek to enforce or resort to any remedies against the
         Company or any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed
         Liabilities, or (ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with
         respect to any security interests, liens or encumbrances granted to the
         Trustee or any Securityholder or other party to a Related Agreement by
         the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person on account of the
         Guaranteed Liabilities or any guaranty thereof, IT BEING EXPRESSLY
         UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED TO BY SUCH GUARANTOR THAT DEMAND
         UNDER THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT MAY BE MADE BY THE TRUSTEE, AND THE
         PROVISIONS HEREOF ENFORCED BY THE TRUSTEE, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST
         DATE ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS AND IS CONTINUING UNDER THE INDENTURE
         AND THE GUARANTEED LIABILITIES ARE THEN DUE AND PAYABLE.

                  (c) Each Guarantor further agrees with respect to this
         Guaranty Agreement that it shall have no right of subrogation,
         reimbursement, contribution or indemnity, nor any right of recourse to
         security for the Guaranteed Liabilities unless and until 93 days
         immediately following the Indenture Termination Date (as defined below)
         shall have elapsed without the filing or commencement, by or against
         any Guarantor, of any state or federal action, suit, petition or
         proceeding seeking any reorganization, liquidation or other relief or
         arrangement in respect of creditors of, or the appointment of a
         receiver, liquidator, trustee or conservator in respect to, such
         Guarantor or its assets. This waiver is expressly intended to prevent
         the existence of any claim in respect to such subrogation,
         reimbursement, contribution or indemnity by any Guarantor against the
         estate of any other Guarantor within the meaning of Section 101 of the
         Bankruptcy Code, in the event of a subsequent case involving any other
         Guarantor. If an amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of
         such rights at any time prior to termination of this Guaranty Agreement
         in accordance with the provisions of Section 22 hereof, such amount
         shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and shall
         forthwith be paid to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
         Securityholders, to be credited and applied upon the Guarantors'
         Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms
         of the Indenture or otherwise as the Trustee may elect. The agreements
         in this subsection shall survive repayment of all of the Guarantors'
         Obligations, the termination or expiration of this Guaranty Agreement
         in any manner, including but not limited to termination in accordance
         with Section 22 hereof, and occurrence of the Indenture Termination
         Date. For purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, "Indenture Termination
         Date" means the date as of which the Company shall have made final
         payment in full of all outstanding amounts under the Securities and the
         Indenture (including all principal, interest, fees and expenses) and
         the Indenture shall have otherwise been satisfied and discharged in
         accordance with Article 13 thereof.

         10. EFFECTIVENESS; ENFORCEABILITY. Upon execution by the parties
hereto, this Guaranty Agreement shall be effective as of the date first above
written and shall continue in full force and effect until termination in
accordance with Section 22 hereof. Any claim or claims that the Trustee may at
any time hereafter have against a Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement may be
asserted by the Trustee on behalf of the Trustee by written notice directed to
such Guarantor in accordance with Section 24 hereof.

         17. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder
Agreement, together with the Indenture and Related Agreements, constitutes and
expresses the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements,

         19. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

<PAGE>

         20. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Guaranty Agreement are
independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for
any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof,
but this Guaranty Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or
unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

         21. COUNTERPARTS. This Guaranty Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an
original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Guaranty
Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart executed by
the Guarantor against whom enforcement is sought. Without limiting the foregoing
provisions of this Section 21, the provisions of Section 16.13 of the Indenture
shall be applicable to this Guaranty Agreement.

         22. TERMINATION. (a) Subject to reinstatement pursuant to Section 13
hereof, this Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder Agreement, and all of
the Guarantors' Obligations hereunder (excluding those Guarantors' obligations
relating to Guaranteed Liabilities that expressly survive such termination)
shall terminate on the Indenture Termination Date.

(b) Upon any release or termination of the Credit Agreement Guaranty with
respect to any Guarantor (a "Released Guarantor"), such Released Guarantor
hereunder shall automatically be deemed to be released of all of its obligations
hereunder and this Guaranty Agreement shall automatically terminate and cease to
have any further force or effect with respect to such Released Guarantor. Each
Released Guarantor shall promptly notify the Trustee of any such release or
termination of this Guaranty Agreement with respect to such Released Guarantor,
it being understood, however, that the failure to so notify the Trustee shall
not affect the release of the obligations of such Released Guarantor hereunder
or the termination of this Guaranty Agreement with respect to such Released
Guarantor. Following notification by a Released Guarantor to the Trustee of the
release and termination of the Credit Agreement Guaranty with respect to such
Released Guarantor (accompanied by a copy of such release), the Trustee agrees
to confirm in writing to the Company and the Released Guarantor the release and
termination of this Guaranty Agreement with respect to such Released Guarantor,
it being understood, however, that the failure of the Trustee to so confirm such
release and termination shall not in any way impair the automatic release and
termination of this Guaranty Agreement with respect to such Released Guarantor
concurrent with any release or termination of the Credit Agreement Guaranty with
respect to such Released Guarantor.

         23. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE; LATE PAYMENTS. All remedies hereunder are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies of the Trustee
or any Securityholder provided by law or under the Indenture, or other
applicable agreements or instruments. Any amounts not paid when due under this
Guaranty Agreement shall bear interest at the rate provided for in the Indenture
and the Securities.

Indenture for the giving and effectiveness of notices and modifications of
addresses thereunder.

the Trustee a Guaranty Joinder Agreement substantially in the form attached as

                       FORM OF GUARANTY JOINDER AGREEMENT

                           GUARANTY JOINDER AGREEMENT

dated as of _____________, 20__ is made by _______________________________, a
________________ (the "Joining Guarantor"), delivered to JPMORGAN CHASE BANK
F/K/A THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK, a New York banking corporation, in its capacity
as Trustee (the "Trustee") under that certain Indenture (as amended, revised,
modified, supplemented or amended and restated from time to time, the
"Indenture"), dated as of September 30, 1997, by and among KELLWOOD COMPANY, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), the Lenders party thereto and the Trustee.
All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given
to such terms in the Indenture.

         WHEREAS, various material domestic subsidiaries of the Company have
executed and delivered to the Trustee a Guaranty Agreement dated as of March 15,
2005 (herein as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time called the
"Guaranty Agreement");

         WHEREAS, the Joining Guarantor is a material domestic Subsidiary and
desires to become a "Guarantor" under the Guaranty Agreement and be joined as a
party to the Guaranty Agreement; and

         WHEREAS, the Joining Guarantor will materially benefit directly and
indirectly by becoming a Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement; and

         NOW, THEREFORE, the Joining Guarantor hereby agrees as follows with the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Securityholders (as defined in the Indenture):

         1. JOINDER. The Joining Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and
unconditionally becomes a party to the Guaranty Agreement as a Guarantor and
bound by all the terms, conditions, obligations, liabilities and undertakings of
each Guarantor or to which each Guarantor is subject thereunder, including
without limitation the joint and several, unconditional, absolute, continuing
and irrevocable guarantee to the Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders
of the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities (as defined
in the Guaranty Agreement) whether now existing or hereafter arising, all with
the same force and effect as if the Joining Guarantor were a signatory to the
Guaranty Agreement.

         2. AFFIRMATIONS. The Joining Guarantor hereby acknowledges and
reaffirms as of the date hereof with respect to itself, its properties and its
affairs each of the waivers, representations, warranties, acknowledgements and
certifications applicable to any Guarantor contained in the Guaranty Agreement.

         3. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Guaranty Joinder Agreement are
independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for
any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof,

but this Guaranty Joinder Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or
unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

         4. COUNTERPARTS. This Guaranty Joinder Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall be
deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this
Guaranty Joinder Agreement to produce or account for more than one such
counterpart executed by the Joining Guarantor. Without limiting the foregoing
provisions of this Section 4, the provisions of Section 16.13 of the Indenture
shall be applicable to this Guaranty Joinder Agreement.

         5. DELIVERY. Joining Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives notice of
acceptance of this Guaranty Joinder Agreement and acknowledges that the
Guaranteed Liabilities are and shall be deemed to be incurred, and credit
extensions under the Indenture made and maintained, in reliance on this Guaranty
Joinder Agreement and the Guarantor's joinder as a party to the Guaranty
Agreement as herein provided.

6. GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The provisions of Sections 26 and
27 of the Guaranty are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth
herein.
