                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
results of operations of Donna Karan International Inc. and its subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company"). All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

   On December 18, 2000, the Company announced that it had received a
proposal from a corporation owned by LVMH Moet Henessey Louis Vuitton Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("LVMH") and a subsidiary of LVMH Moet Henessey Louis
Vuitton, S.A., a French corporation, to enter into merger negotiations (the
"LVMH Merger Offer") to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock
of the Company for a price of $8.50 per share in cash. On April 2, 2001, the
Company and LVMH announced that they had entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger, dated as of March 31, 2001 (the "Merger Agreement"), which sets
forth the terms and conditions of the proposed acquisition of the Company by
LVMH. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, an indirect subsidiary of LVMH will
be merged with and into the Company (the "Merger") and the Company will
survive the Merger as an indirect subsidiary of LVMH. The Merger Agreement
provides that the stockholders of the Company will receive $10.75 in cash for
each share of common stock of the Company. The Merger is subject to the
approval of the stockholders of the Company and the satisfaction of other
customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory
approvals. Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement,
stockholders who collectively beneficially own approximately 46.8% of the
Company's outstanding common stock entered into voting agreements with LVMH.
Under the terms of these voting agreements, these stockholders have agreed to
vote all shares of common stock that they beneficially own in favor of the
adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger. In addition,
these stockholders have also agreed, among other things, to vote against any
other transaction the consummation of which could reasonably be expected to
prevent or materially delay the Merger. During the three month period ended
April 1, 2001, the Company incurred $1.7 million in expenses related to the
LVMH Merger Offer, which have been classified as selling, general and
administrative expenses. This amount includes $828,000 in legal and
accounting fees, a $500,00 accrual related to the putative class action
lawsuits described below under "Commitments and Contingencies", $150,000 in
special committee fees, a special bonus of $150,000 payable to an executive
officer, and $72,000 in other merger related expenses.

   The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. On a
quarterly basis, the Company's operations may vary as a result of, among
other things, production and shipping schedules, the introduction of new
products, the timing of opening and closing Company-owned retail stores, and
variations in the timing of certain holidays from year to year. The results
of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations to be expected for a full year. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying
footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended,
for the year ended December 31, 2000.

   Certain amounts in the financial statements of prior years have been
reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.


RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

The Company's results of operations in the second and third quarters of
fiscal 2001, having been affected by business and economic conditions, are
below forecast and are expected to continue below forecast for the balance of
the fiscal year. In August 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with
Gabrielle Studio, Inc. (an LVMH affiliate) pursuant to which Gabrielle
Studio, Inc. agreed to defer until June 30, 2002 the payment of royalties
owed by the Company for the second, third and fourth quarters of 2001. In
August 2001, the Company also amended its credit facility. The August 2001
credit facility amendment provides (i) that an event of default will occur on
January 7, 2002 if the merger with LVMH has not occurred, (ii) for changes in
the application of credit facility covenant calculations so as to exclude
from such calculations, the royalty payments deferred by the above referenced
agreement with Gabrielle Studio, Inc., together with certain unpaid severance
and merger expenses, and (iii) that the Company must maintain a minimum of
$20 million in availability under the credit facility from December 15, 2001
through the expiration of the credit facility. In October 2001, the Company
further amended its credit facility. The October amendment, while waiving the
need for the Company to meet certain financial covenants as of the end of the
third quarter, also reduced the amount the Company can borrow under the
facility to $102 million for the month of November 2001, $90 million for the
period from December 1, 2001 through December 14, 2001 and $85 million
thereafter. It also requires that the Company maintain a minimum credit
availability of $4 million for the period from October 22, 2001 through
October 31, 2001, $8 million for the period from November 1, 2001 through
November 14, 2001, and $11 million for the period from November 15, 2001
through December 14, 2001, in addition to the $20 million requirement for the
period subsequent to December 14, 2001 that was contained in the August
amendment. In addition to the October 2001 and August 2001 credit facility
amendments, in June 2001 the Company also amended its credit facility
enabling the Company to borrow amounts in excess of its calculated borrowing
base during the months of June, July and August 2001. The Company believes
that its results of operations for the balance of the fiscal year will cause
it to violate several year-end financial covenants of its most recently
amended credit facility. The failure of the Merger with LVMH to close by
January 7, 2002 will also cause an event of default under the credit
agreement. The Company believes that the Merger will occur prior to January
7, 2002, and if not, that it will be required to amend its existing credit
facility (which expires May, 2003), or obtain an alternate source of
long-term financing. However, there can be no assurances that an amended
credit facility or any new financing will be available and, if available,
that the terms will be as favorable as the existing terms in the current
credit facility.


Adoption of New Accounting Standards

   In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," as amended, which is required to be adopted in fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company has adopted the provisions of this
Statement effective January 1, 2001. This Statement requires that all
derivatives be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability
measured at fair value and that changes in fair value be recognized currently in
earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. If the derivative is
a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of
derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged
assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other
comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The
ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be immediately
recognized in earnings. The Company's cumulative effect of adoption of this
Statement was not material to the Company's results of operations or financial
condition. The transition adjustment from adopting this statement resulted in
reclassifying a cumulative unrecognized loss of $0.9 million from accrued
expenses to other comprehensive income.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   The Company uses derivative financial instruments for the purpose of managing
its exposure to adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The
Company conducts business in many foreign currencies. As a result, it is subject
to foreign currency exchange rate risk due to the effects that foreign exchange
rate movements of these currencies have on the Company's costs and cash flows.
The Company addresses its risks through a program of risk management that
includes the use of derivative financial instruments, the principal objective of
which is to minimize the effect of foreign exchange rate movements on the
Company's operating activities.

   The Company enters into forward exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency
denominated sales and inventory purchases, and the resulting accounts receivable
and payable. Such forward exchange contracts are for periods consistent with the
identified exposures. These contracts are effective hedges of these exposures,
and are designated as dual-purpose hedges-cash flow hedges until the anticipated
transaction occurs, and fair value hedges until the related receivable or
payable settles. As cash flow hedges, changes in the effective portion of the
fair value of these forward contracts are included in other comprehensive income
and recognized in revenues and cost of sales, as applicable, when the underlying
hedged transaction occurs. Once the sale or inventory purchase occurs, gains and
losses on the fair value hedge of the resulting asset or liability are
recognized in other income and expense and are offset by gains and losses on the
mark-to-market of the underlying receivable or payable. Foreign currency
transactions that do not qualify as hedges are marked-to-market on a current
basis with gains and losses recognized through income and reflected in operating
expenses. In addition, any previously deferred gains and losses on hedges that
are terminated prior to the transaction date are recognized in current income
when the hedge is terminated. The contracts have varying maturities with none
exceeding 24 months. Included in other comprehensive income is a net unrealized
gain of $2.6 million related to forward contracts outstanding as of April 1,
2001.

   As a matter of policy, the Company enters into forward exchange contracts
with parties that are major international banks and financial institutions that
have at least an "A" (or equivalent) credit rating. The Company's exposure to
credit loss in the event of nonperformance by any of the counterparties is
limited to only the recognized, but not realized, gains attributable to the
contracts. Management believes risk of loss is remote and in any event would be
immaterial.

Net Income Per Common Share

   In accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share," net income per common share
amounts ("basic EPS") were computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding and contingently issuable shares
(which satisfy certain conditions) and excluded any potential dilution. Net
income per common share amounts assuming dilution ("diluted EPS") were computed
by reflecting potential dilution from the issuance of restricted stock and the
exercise of stock options. SFAS No. 128 requires the presentation of both basic
EPS and diluted EPS on the face of the statements of income.

   A reconciliation between the numerators and denominators of the basic and
diluted EPS computations is as follows:

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

   In December 2000, several putative class actions were filed in state court
in Delaware and New York (collectively the "LVMH Actions") in connection with
the offer of LVMH to acquire the outstanding shares of the Company for a
price of $8.50 per share (the "LVMH Offer"). All of the complaints name the
Company, its Chairman, its Vice Chairman and its Chief Executive Officer as
defendants. Two of the complaints also name the Company's outside Board
members as defendants and three of the complaints also name LVMH as a
defendant. None of the lawsuits specifies any amount of damages sought and,
therefore, it is not practicable to estimate a range of possible loss in
connection with this litigation.

   The LVMH Actions allege, INTER ALIA, that the $8.50 price initially
offered by LVMH to purchase the Company's common stock is inadequate, that
the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with
the LVMH Offer and that the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Company
furthered their own interests, at the expense of the Company's interests, in
allegedly negotiating with LVMH concerning the proposed sale of the Company
to LVMH.

   Following the commencement of the LVMH Actions, counsel for the Company and
the other defendants entered into (i) a stipulation with counsel for plaintiffs
in the actions filed in New York staying such actions and providing that the
outcome of those actions will be governed by the outcome of the actions filed in
Delaware and (ii) a stipulation with counsel for plaintiffs in the actions filed
in Delaware providing that such actions will be consolidated and that defendants
need not respond to the individual complaints pending the filing of a
consolidated amended complaint. By order of the Delaware Court, these actions
were consolidated under the caption IN RE DONNA KARAN INTERNATIONAL INC.
SHAREHOLDERS LITIGATION.

   The Company is also involved from time to time in routine legal matters and
litigation incidental to its business. While the outcome of these matters, as
well as the LVMH Actions, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations and cash flows in the period in which such outcome is
determined, in the Company's opinion, the results of these matters are not
expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operation. As of April 1, 2001, the Company accrued $500,000
related to the LVMH Actions, representing that portion of any eventual
outcome not anticipated to be covered by insurance.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

   For the three months ended April 1, 2001, the Company utilized approximately
$0.1 million of reserves previously established in connection with its fiscal
1999 restructuring plan. The Company anticipates utilizing the remaining balance
of its reserves during fiscal 2001.

   The balance of the fiscal 1999 restructuring and other charges are as
follows:

   The provision for income taxes represents Federal, foreign, state and local
income taxes. The effective income tax rate was 39.0% and 41.0% for the three
months ended April 1, 2001 and April 2, 2000, respectively. This rate reflects
the effect of state and local taxes, tax rates in certain foreign jurisdictions
and certain nondeductible expenses.

reported in those financial statements. Actual results could differ from those
based upon such estimates and assumptions.
