Report of Independent Auditors



Administrative Committee of the Plan

Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation

Associates Investment Plan for Hourly Associates



We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits of the Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation
Associates Investment Plan for Hourly Associates as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
plan benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in its net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation

Associates Investment Plan for Hourly Associates



Notes to Financial Statements



December 31, 1999





A.  Description of the Plan



The following description of the Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation (the "Company") Associates Investment Plan for Hourly
Associates (the "Plan") provides only general information.  Participants should refer to the Plan Document for a more complete description of
the Plan's provisions.



General



The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering hourly production and retail field employees of the Company who have at least one
year of service (1,000 hours in a year) and are age 21 or older.  The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").



Contributions



Each year, participants may contribute up to 15% of pre-tax annual compensation, as defined by the Plan.  Through March 31,
1999, the Company contributed 50% of the first 6% of base compensation that a participant contributed to the Plan.  Effective April 1, 1999, the
Company matched 100% of the first 2% of base compensation that a participant contributed to the Plan plus 25% of the next 4% of base compensation
contributed by the participant.



Participant Accounts



Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and allocations of (a) the Company's contributions
and (b) Plan earnings.  Forfeited balances of terminated participants' nonvested accounts are used to reduce future Company contributions.  Through
March 31, 1999, 100% of the Company contributions were automatically invested in the common stock of the Company.  Effective April 1, 1999,
the Company contributions were invested in any fund offered by the Plan as elected by the participant.  However, existing balances as of March 31,
1999 must remain in the Employer Company Fund until participants are age 55 or older, at which time they may choose to transfer their
investment.



Vesting



Through March 31, 1999, amounts attributable to Company contributions become vested on the participant's 65th birthday or if the
participant's employment by the Company terminates by reason of the participant's death or permanent disability or the participant has completed five
years of service with the Company.  Effective April 1, 1999, the Company's contribution becomes 25% vested after two years from the participant's
date

A.  Description of the Plan (continued)



of hire and vests 25% more each year, reaching 100% after five years of service.  The vesting provisions not related to years of
service remain the same.



Investment Options



Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employee contributions into any of eight investment options.  A participant may
contribute a maximum of 25% of employee contributions into the Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation Common Stock Fund.



On April 1, 1999, the Plan offered three new investment options, the S&P 500 Index Fund, the Small Cap Fund and the
Russell International Fund.  The Russell International Fund replaced the Templeton Foreign Fund.



Participant Loans Receivable



Participants may borrow from the Plan, with certain restrictions, using their vested account balance as collateral.  The minimum loan
amount is $1,000 and the maximum loan amount is the lesser of (i) $50,000 reduced by the participant's highest outstanding loan balance during the
previous 12 months, or (ii) 50% of the vested value of the participant's account. Interest is fixed for the term of the loan at the prime rate
as of the first business day of the month of application as published in The Wall Street Journal, plus 1%.  Loan repayments are made through payroll
deductions which may be specified for a term of 1 to 5 years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence.



Forfeitures



Contributions made on behalf of non-vested employees who have terminated are retained by the Plan and are used to reduce the
Company's future matching contributions.  At December 31, 1999, approximately $8,500 was held by the Plan as forfeitures of non-vested terminated
employees.



Payment of Benefits



Participants entitled to final distributions generally will receive payment in the form of a lump sum amount equal to the value of
their vested account.



Plan Termination



Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any
time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.  In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their
accounts.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)



B.  Significant Accounting Policies



The accounting records of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis.



Substantially all administrative expenses are paid by the Company.



In accordance with the Rules and Regulations of the Department of Labor, investments are included in the accompanying financial
statements at market value as determined by quoted market prices or at fair value as determined by Wachovia for the applicable Wachovia investment
funds.  Purchases and sales of securities are reflected on a trade date basis.



All assets of the Plan are held by Wachovia in the AIP Master Trust and are segregated from the assets of the Company.  The Plan
shares in AIP Master Trust interest and investment income based upon its participants' shares of AIP Master Trust net assets available for plan
benefits.  The AIP Master Trust's investments include an interest contract with an insurance company that has been placed into conservatorship in 1991.
In November 1998, the AIP Master Trust received its principal in the interest contract plus accrued interest, as defined in the conservatorship
agreement.  The Plan does not have a beneficial interest in this interest contract.



The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.



C.  Transactions with Parties-in-Interest



During the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, the AIP Master Trust purchased 134,121 and 56,702 shares, respectively,
of the Company's common stock and received $206,205 and $197,777, respectively, from the Company as payment of dividends on its common stock.  The AIP
Master Trust also sold 42,849 and 14,961 shares of the Company's common stock during the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

D.  Changes in the AIP Master Trust Net Assets Held by Fund

1999 and 1998.  Changes in the AIP Master Trust net assets held by fund during the year ended December 31, 1999 were as follows:

F.  Income Tax Status



The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated April 27, 1995, stating that the Plan is
qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation.  Once
qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification.  The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is being
operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax-
exempt.

Report of Independent Auditors



Administrative Committee of the Plan

Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation

Associates Investment Plan for Salaried Associates



We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan benefits of the Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation
Associates Investment Plan for Salaried Associates as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
plan benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in its net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation

Associates Investment Plan for Salaried Associates



Notes to Financial Statements



December 31, 1999



A. Description of the Plan



The following description of the Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation (the "Company") Associates Investment Plan for Salaried
Associates (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan Document for a more complete description of
the Plan's provisions.



General



The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering salaried clerical employees of the Company who have at least one year of service
(1,000 hours in a year) and are age 21 or older. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA").



Contributions



Each year, participants may contribute up to 15% of pre-tax annual compensation, as defined by the Plan. Through March 31, 1999, the
Company contributed 50% of the first 6% of base compensation that a participant contributed to the Plan. Effective April 1, 1999, the Company matched
100% of the first 2% of base compensation that a participant contributed to the Plan plus 25% of the next 4% of base compensation contributed by the
participant.



Participant Accounts



Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and allocations of (a) the Company's contributions and
(b) Plan earnings. Forfeited balances of terminated participants' nonvested accounts are used to reduce future Company contributions. Through March 31,
1999, 100% of the Company contributions were automatically invested in the common stock of the Company. Effective April 1, 1999, the Company
contributions were invested in any fund offered by the Plan as elected by the participant. However, existing balances as of March 31, 1999  must remain
in the Employer Company Fund until participants are age 55 or older, at which time they may choose to transfer their investment.



Vesting



Through March 31, 1999, amounts attributable to Company contributions become vested on the participant's 65th birthday or if the
participant's employment by the Company terminates by reason of the participant's death or permanent disability or the participant has completed

A. Description of the Plan (continued)



five years of service with the Company.  Effective April 1, 1999, the Company's contribution becomes 25% vested after two years from
the participant's date of hire and vests 25% more each year, reaching 100% after five years of service.  The vesting provisions not related to years of
service remain the same.



Investment Options



Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employee contributions into any of eight investment options. A participant may
contribute a maximum of 25% of employee contributions into the Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation Common Stock Fund.



On April 1, 1999, the Plan offered three new investment options, the S&P 500 Index Fund, the Small Cap Fund and the Russell
International Fund.  The Russell International Fund replaced the Templeton Foreign Fund.



Participant Loans Receivable



Participants may borrow from the Plan, with certain restrictions, using their vested account balance as collateral. The minimum loan
amount is $1,000 and the maximum loan amount is the lesser of (i) $50,000 reduced by the participant's highest outstanding loan balance during the
previous 12 months, or (ii) 50% of the vested value of the participant's account. Interest is fixed for the term of the loan at the prime rate as of the
first business day of the month of application as published in The Wall Street Journal, plus 1%. Loan repayments are made through payroll deductions
which may be specified for a term of 1 to 5 years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence.



Forfeitures



Contributions made on behalf of non-vested employees who have terminated are retained by the Plan and are used to reduce the
Company's future matching contributions.  At December 31, 1999, approximately $65,000 was held by the Plan as forfeitures of non-vested terminated
employees.

Payment of Benefits



Participants entitled to final distributions generally will receive payment in the form of a lump-sum amount equal to the value of
their vested account.



Plan Termination



Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any
time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their
accounts.



B. Significant Accounting Policies



The accounting records of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis.



Substantially all administrative expenses are paid by the Company.



In accordance with the Rules and Regulations of the Department of Labor, investments are included in the accompanying financial
statements at market value as determined by quoted market price or at fair value as determined by Wachovia for the applicable Wachovia investment funds.
Purchase and sales of securities are reflected on a trade date basis.



All assets of the Plan are held by Wachovia in the AIP Master Trust and are segregated from the assets of the Company. The Plan
shares in AIP Master Trust interest and investment income based upon its participants' shares of AIP Master Trust net assets available for plan
benefits. The AIP Master Trust's investments include an interest contract with an insurance company that has been placed into conservatorship in 1991.
In November 1998, the AIP Master Trust received its principal in the interest contract plus accrued interest, as defined in the conservatorship
agreement. The Plan does not have a beneficial interest in this interest contract.

B. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)



The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.



C. Transactions with Parties-in-Interest



During the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, the AIP Master Trust purchased 134,121 and 56,702 shares, respectively, of the
Company's common stock and received $206,205 and $197,777, respectively, from the Company as payment of dividends on its common stock. The AIP Master
Trust also sold 42,849 and 14,961 shares of the Company's common stock during the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

F. Income Tax Status



The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated April 27, 1995, stating that the Plan is
qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation.  Once
qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification.  The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is being
operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax-
exempt.
