**Design**

        Our apparel product lines havedesign teams that are responsible for the creation, development and coordinationof the product group offerings within each line. We believe our design staff isrecognized for its distinctive styling of garments and its ability to updatefashion classics with contemporary trends. Our apparel designers travelthroughout the world for fabrics and colors, and stay continuously abreast ofthe latest fashion trends. In addition, we actively monitor the retail sales ofour products to determine and react to changes in consumer trends. 

        For most sportswear lines, we willdevelop several groups in a season. A group typically consists of an assortmentof skirts, pants, jeans, shorts, jackets, blouses, sweaters, t-shirts andvarious accessories. We believe that we are able to reduce design risks becausewe often will not have started cutting fabrics until the first few weeks of amajor selling season. Since different styles within a group often use the samefabric, we can redistribute styles and, in some cases, colors, to fit currentmarket demand. We also have a key item replenishment program for certain lineswhich consists of core products that reflect little variation from season toseason. 

        Our footwear and accessoriesproduct lines are developed by a combination of our own design teams andthird-party designers, which independently interpret global lifestyle, clothing,footwear and accessories trends. To research and confirm such trends, the teamstravel extensively in Asia, Europe and major American markets, conduct extensivemarket research on retailer and consumer preferences, and subscribe to fashionand color information services. Each team presents styles that maintain eachbrand's distinct personality. Samples are refined and then produced. After thesamples are evaluated, lines are modified further for presentation at eachseason's shoe shows and accessory markets. 

        Our jewelry brands are developedby separate design teams. Each team presents styles that maintain each brand'sdistinct personality. A prototype is developed for each new product whereappropriate. Most prototypes are produced by our contractors based on technicaldrawings that we supply. These prototypes are reviewed by our productdevelopment team, who negotiate costs with the contractors. After samples areevaluated and cost estimates are received, the lines are modified as needed forpresentation for each selling season. 

        In accordance with standardindustry practices for licensed products, we have the right to approve theconcepts and designs of all products produced and distributed by our licensees.Similarly, Givenchy and Levi Strauss & Co. also provide design services to usfor our licensed products and have the right to approve our designs for the *Givenchy* and *Dockers Women* product lines, respectively. Under the NewBalance license, we have the right to approve the concepts, designs, prototypes,samples and packaging materials produced by New Balance, and New Balance hassimilar rights to approve the concepts, designs, prototypes, samples andpackaging materials produced by us. 

**Manufacturing and Quality Control**

*Apparel*

        Apparel sold by us is produced inaccordance with our design, specification and production schedules through anextensive network of independent factories located throughout the world,primarily in Asia, with additional denim production located in the Middle Eastand Africa. Nearly all our apparel products were manufactured outside NorthAmerica during 2008. 

        We believe that outsourcing ourproducts allows us to maximize production flexibility, while avoidingsignificant capital expenditures, work-in-process inventory build-ups and costsof managing a larger production work force. Our fashion designers, productionstaff and quality control personnel closely examine garments manufactured bycontractors to ensure that they meet our high standards. 

        Our comprehensive quality controlprogram is designed to ensure that raw materials and finished goods meet ourexacting standards. Fabrics and trims for garments manufactured are inspected byeither independent inspection services or by our contractors upon receipt intheir warehouses. Our quality

- 9 -

control program includes inspection of both prototypes of each garment priorto cutting by the contractors and a sampling of production garments upon receiptat our warehouse facilities to ensure compliance with our specifications. 

        Our foreign manufacturers'operations are primarily monitored by our Hong Kong-based personnel, buyingagents located in other countries and independent contractors and inspectionservices. Finished goods are generally shipped to our warehouses for finalinspection and distribution. 

        In addition, our apparel productsare tested to ensure compliance with applicable consumer product safety laws andregulations. 

        For our sportswear business, weoccasionally supply the raw materials to our manufacturers. Otherwise, the rawmaterials are purchased directly by the manufacturer in accordance with ourspecifications. Raw materials, which are in most instances made and/or coloredespecially for us, consist principally of piece goods and yarn and are purchasedby us from a number of domestic and foreign textile mills and converters. 

        Our primary raw material in ourjeanswear business is denim, which is primarily purchased from leading millslocated in the Pacific Rim and sub-continent. Denim purchase commitments andprices are negotiated on a quarterly or semi-annual basis. We perform our ownextensive testing of denim, cotton twill and other fabrics to ensure consistencyand durability. 

        We do not have long-termarrangements with any of our suppliers. We have experienced little difficulty insatisfying our raw material requirements and consider our sources of supplyadequate. Our products have historically been purchased from foreignmanufacturers in pre-set United States dollar prices. To date, we generally havenot been materially adversely affected by fluctuations in exchange rates.However, a substantial decline of the United States dollar against major worldcurrencies, coupled with higher labor costs being experienced by some of ourforeign manufacturers, primarily in China, could cause our manufacturing coststo rise.

        Our apparel products aremanufactured according to plans prepared each year which reflect prior years'experience, current fashion trends, economic conditions and management estimatesof a line's performance. We generally order piece goods concurrently withconcept development. The purchase of piece goods is controlled and coordinatedon a divisional basis. When possible, we limit our exposure to specific colorsand fabrics by committing to purchase only a portion of total projected demandwith options to purchase additional volume if demand meets the plan. 

        We believe our extensiveexperience in logistics and production management underlies our success incoordinating with contractors who manufacture different garments included withinthe same product group. We also contract for the production of a portion of ourproducts through a network of foreign agents. We have had long-term mutuallysatisfactory business relationships with many of our contractors and agents butdo not have long-term written agreements with any of them. 

*Footwear and Accessories*

        To provide a steady source ofinventory, we rely on long-standing relationships with manufacturers in Asia. Wework through independent buying agents for footwear and our own offices foraccessories and jewelry. We do not have formal purchase agreements with any of our manufacturers.Allocation of production among our manufacturing resources is determined basedupon a number of factors, including manufacturing capabilities, deliveryrequirements and pricing.

        During 2008, nearly all ourfootwear products were manufactured by independent footwear manufacturerslocated in Asia (primarily China). Our handbags and small leather goods aresourced through our own buying office in China, which utilizes independent thirdparty manufacturers located primarily in China. Our products have historicallybeen purchased in pre-set United States dollar prices. To date, we generallyhave not been materially adversely affected by fluctuations in exchange rates.However, a substantial decline of the United States dollar against major worldcurrencies, coupled with

higher labor costs being experienced by some of our foreign manufacturers,primarily in China, could cause our manufacturing costs to rise.

        For footwear, quality controlreviews are done on-site in the factories by our third-party buying agentsprimarily to ensure that material and component qualities and fit of the productare in accordance with our specifications. For accessories, quality controlreviews are done on-site in the factories by our own locally-based inspectiontechnicians. Our quality control program includes approval of prototypes, aswell as approval of final production samples to ensure they meet our highstandards. In addition, our footwear and accessories products are tested toensure compliance with applicable consumer product safety laws and regulations.

        We believe that our relationshipswith our Chinese manufacturers provide us with a responsive and adequate sourceof supply of our products and, accordingly, give us a significant competitiveadvantage. We also believe that purchasing a significant percentage of ourproducts through independent third-party manufacturers in China allows us tomaximize production flexibility while limiting our capital expenditures,work-in-process inventory and costs of managing a larger production work force.Because of sophisticated footwear manufacturing techniques, individualproduction lines can be quickly changed from one style to another, andproduction of certain styles can be completed in as few as four hours, fromuncut leather to boxed footwear. 

        We place our projected orders foreach season's styles with our manufacturers prior to the time we have receivedall of our customers' orders. Because of our close working relationships withour third party manufacturers (which allow for flexible production schedules andproduction of large quantities of footwear within a short period of time), manyof our orders are finalized only after we have received orders from a majorityof our customers. As a result, we are better able to meet sudden demands for particular designs,more quickly exploit market trends as they occur, reduce inventory risk and moreefficiently fill reorders booked during a particular season. 

        We believe that the quality andcost of products manufactured by our suppliers provide us with the ability toremain competitive. We also have our own manufacturing facility to satisfydemand for products manufactured domestically (such as cosmetic containers) andto provide product samples, prototypes, small quantities of test merchandise anda small amount of production capacity in the event of a disruption of certainoutsourced manufacturing. We have historically experienced little difficulty insatisfying finished goods requirements, and we consider our source of suppliesadequate. 

        During 2008, our jewelry productswere manufactured primarily by independently-owned jewelry manufacturers inAsia. Sourcing the majority of our products from third-party manufacturersenables us to better control costs and avoid significant capital expenditures,work in process inventory, and costs of managing a larger production workforce.Our products have historically been purchased from Asian manufacturers inpre-set United States dollar prices. To date, we generally have not beenmaterially adversely affected by fluctuations in exchange rates. However, asubstantial decline of the United States dollar against major world currencies,coupled with higher labor costs being experienced by some of our foreignmanufacturers, primarily in China, could cause our manufacturing costs to rise.

        Forecasts for basic jewelryproducts are produced on a rolling 12-week basis and are adjusted based on pointof sale information from retailers. Manufacturing of fashion jewelry products isbased on marketing forecasts and sales plans; actual orders are received severalweeks after such forecasts are produced. Quality control testing is performedon-site by domestic employees or our own locally-based inspection technicians.Quality assurance checks are also performed upon receipt of finished goods atour distribution facilities.

**Imports and Import Restrictions**

        Our transactions with our foreignmanufacturers and suppliers are subject to the risks of doing business abroad.Imports into the United States are affected by, among other things, the cost oftransportation and the imposition of import duties and restrictions. The UnitedStates, China and other countries in which our products are manufactured may,from time to time, impose new quotas, duties, tariffs or other restrictions, oradjust presently prevailing quotas, duty or tariff levels, which could affectour operations and our ability to import products at current or increasedlevels. We cannot predict the likelihood or frequency of any such eventsoccurring. 

        On January 1, 2005, the WorldTrade Organization's 148 member nations lifted all quotas on apparel andtextiles. As a result, all textiles and textile apparel manufactured in a membernation and exported after January 1, 2005 are no longer subject to quotarestrictions. A special safeguard provision that had provided the U.S. with anadditional four years beyond January 1, 2005 to apply quotas on Chinese importsof textiles expired on December 31, 2008. The lifting of quotas and expirationof safeguard provisions allows retailers, apparel firms and others to importunlimited quantities of apparel and textile items from China, India and otherlow-cost countries, which could lead to lower production costs, allow us toimprove the quality of our products for a given cost, or allow us to concentrateproduction in the most efficient markets. However, litigation and political activity have been initiated by interested partiesseeking to re-impose quotas. In addition, if the prices of the imported goodscan be shown to be less than those offered by domestic producers for the sameitems, the U.S. International Trade Commission may recommend that anti-dumpingduties be imposed on those goods. As a result, we are unable to predict thelong-term effects of the lifting of quota restrictions and related events on ourresults of operations. 

        Our imported products are alsosubject to United States customs duties and, in the ordinary course of business,we are from time to time subject to claims by the United States Customs Servicefor duties and other charges. 

        We monitor duty, tariff andquota-related developments and continually seek to minimize our potentialexposure in these areas through, among other measures, geographicaldiversification of our manufacturing sources, the maintenance of overseasoffices and shifts of production among countries and manufacturers. 

        Because our foreign manufacturersare located at significant geographic distances from us, we are generallyrequired to allow greater lead time for foreign orders, which reduces ourmanufacturing flexibility. Foreign imports are also affected by the high cost oftransportation into the United States and the effects of fluctuations in thevalue of the dollar against foreign currencies in certain countries. 

        In addition to the factorsoutlined above, our future import operations may be adversely affected bypolitical instability resulting in the disruption of trade from exportingcountries and restrictions on the transfer of funds. 

**Marketing**

        Our ten largest customer groups,principally department stores, accounted for approximately 58% of gross revenuesin 2008. Macy's, Inc., our largest customer in 2008, accounted for 21% of our2008 gross revenues. 

        We believe that purchasingdecisions are generally made independently by individual department storeswithin a commonly controlled group. There has been a trend, however, toward morecentralized purchasing decisions. As such decisions become more centralized, therisk to us of such concentration increases. Furthermore, we believe a trendexists among our major customers to concentrate purchasing among a narrowinggroup of vendors. In the future, retailers may have financial problems orcontinue to consolidate, undergo restructurings or reorganizations, or realigntheir affiliations, any of which could increase the concentration of ourcustomers. We attempt to minimize our credit risk from our concentration of customers by closely monitoring accounts receivable balancesand shipping levels and the ongoing financial performance and credit status ofour customers.

        Sportswear products are marketedto department stores and specialty retailing customers during "market weeks,"which are generally four to six months in advance of the corresponding industryselling seasons. While we typically will allocate a six-week period to market asportswear line, most major orders are written within the first three weeks ofany market period. 

        We also provide design andmanufacturing resources to several of our wholesale customers to develop productlines to be sold under their own private labels. These private label linescompete directly with our product lines and may receive more prominentpositioning on the retail floor by department stores. While this creates morecompetition, we believe that national brands are often preferred by the consumer. 

        We believe retail demand for ourapparel products is enhanced by our ability to provide our retail accounts andconsumers with knowledgeable sales support. In this regard, we have anestablished program to place retail sales specialists in many major departmentstores for many of our brands, including *Jones New York, Jones New YorkSport, Jones New York Signature, Kasper* and *Anne Klein*. Theseindividuals have been trained by us to support the sale of our products byeducating other store personnel and consumers about our products and bycoordinating our marketing activities with those of the stores. In addition, theretail sales specialists provide us with firsthand information concerningconsumer reactions to our products. In addition, we have a program of designatedsales personnel in which a store agrees to designate certain sales personnel whowill devote a substantial portion of their time to selling our products inreturn for certain benefits. 

        We introduce new collections offootwear at industry-wide shoe shows, held semi-annually in both New York Cityand Las Vegas. We also present an interim line to customers during the fall andspring of each year. We introduce new handbag and small leather goodscollections at market shows that occur five times each year in New York City.Jewelry products are marketed in New York City showrooms through individualcustomer appointments and at five industry-wide market shows each year.Retailers visit our showrooms at these times to view various product lines andmerchandise. 

        We market our footwear, handbagand small leather goods businesses with certain department stores and specialtyretail stores by bringing our retail and sales planning expertise to thoseretailers. Under this program, members of branded division management who haveextensive retail backgrounds work with the retailer to create a "focus area" or"concept shop" within the store that displays the full collection of a singlebrand in one area. These individuals assist the department and specialty retailstores by: providing advice about appropriate product assortment and productflow; making recommendations about when a product should be re-ordered;providing sales guidance, including the training of store personnel; anddeveloping advertising programs with the retailer to promote sales of ourproducts. In addition, our sales force and field merchandising associates forfootwear, handbags and small leather goods recommend how to display ourproducts, assist with merchandising displays and educate store personnel aboutus and our products. The goal of this approach is to promote high retail sell-throughsof our products. With this approach, customers are encouraged to devote greaterselling space to our products, and we are better able to assess consumerpreferences, the future ordering needs of our customers, and inventoryrequirements.

        We work closely with our wholesalejewelry customers to create long-term sales programs, which include choosingamong our diverse product lines and implementing sales programs at the storelevel. A team of sales representatives and sales managers monitor productperformance against plan and are responsible for inventory management, usingpoint-of-sale information to respond to shifts in consumer preferences.Management uses this information to adjust product mix and inventoryrequirements. In addition, field merchandising associates recommend how todisplay our products, assist with merchandising displays and educate storepersonnel about us and our products. Retailers are also provided with customizeddisplays and store-level merchandising designed to maximize sales and inventoryturnover. By providing retailers with in-store product management, we establishclose relationships with retailers, allowing us to maximize product sales andincrease floor space allocated to our product lines. We have also placed retail sales specialists in majordepartment stores to support the sale of our *Napier, Nine West, Givenchy*and *Judith Jack* jewelry products.

**Advertising and Promotion**

        We employ a cooperativeadvertising program for our branded products, whereby we share the cost ofcertain wholesale customers' advertising and promotional expenses in newspapers,magazines and other media up to either a preset maximum percentage of thecustomer's purchases or an agreed-upon rate of contribution. An important partof the marketing program includes prominent displays of our products inwholesale customers' fashion catalogs as well as in-store shop displays. 

        We have national advertisingcampaigns for the following brands: 
- Jones New York  Collection and  Jones New York Signature  (in	fashion and lifestyle magazines),
- Nine West  (footwear, apparel, handbags, jewelry and licensed	products, primarily in fashion magazines),
- Bandolino  (in fashion magazines), 
- l.e.i.  (in junior-focused and fashion magazines and radio), 
- Anne Klein New York  (in fashion magazines), and
- AK Anne Klein  (in fashion magazines). 

        In May 2008, we entered into anexclusive agreement with country music performer Taylor Swift to be the face of*l.e.i.*, endorsing the brand through various initiatives including publicrelations, concert performances and sweepstakes. Our *l.e.i.* brand issponsoring Ms. Swift's headlining concert tour in 2009 to increase brandawareness and reinforce the connection between Ms. Swift and the *l.e.i.*brand. 

        Since 2007, "Style Guy" LloydBoston has been the exclusive spokesperson for our *Jones New York* brand.In this role, Mr. Boston writes merchandising manuals for *Jones New York,Jones New York Signature* and *Jones New York Sport*, hosts 20 *JonesNew York* special events through the year in different department stores,hosts Macy's training on behalf of *Jones New York*, delivers reports onstyle trends for seasonal coordinator meetings and serves as the face of thebrand at www.jny.com. Mr. Boston, who is a style editor on NBC's Today Show andhas appeared as a guest on many other television shows, including Oprah, TheView and CNN American Morning, hosts Closet Cases on Fine Living Network, whichis sponsored by *Jones New York*. 

        Given the strong recognition andbrand loyalty already afforded our brands, we believe these campaigns will serveto further enhance and broaden our customer base. Our in-house creative servicesdepartments oversee the conception, production and execution of virtually allaspects of these activities. We also believe that our retail network promotesbrand name recognition and supports the merchandising of complete lines by, andthe marketing efforts of, our wholesale customers. 

**Backlog**

        We had unfilled customer orders ofapproximately $1.0 billion at December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007. Theseamounts include both confirmed and unconfirmed orders which we believe, based onindustry practice and past experience, will be confirmed. The amount of unfilledorders at a particular time is affected by a number of factors, including themix of product, the timing of the receipt and processing of customer orders andscheduling of the manufacture and shipping of the product, which in someinstances is dependent on the desires of the customer. Backlog is also affectedby a continuing trend among customers to reduce the lead time on their orders.Due to these factors, a comparison of unfilled orders from period to period isnot necessarily meaningful and may not be indicative of eventual actualshipments.

**Licensing of Company Brands**

        We have entered into variouslicense agreements under which independent licensees either manufacture, marketand sell certain products under our trademarks in accordance with designsfurnished or approved by us or distribute our products in certain countrieswhere we do not do business. These licenses, the terms of which (not includingrenewals) expire at various dates through 2012, typically provide for thepayment to us of a percentage of the licensee's net sales of the licensedproducts against guaranteed minimum royalty payments, which typically increaseover the term of the agreement.

Under the CPA and through independent agreements with domestic and foreignmanufacturers that produce our products, we monitor compliance with the JonesApparel Group Standards for Contractors and Suppliers ("JAG Standards"). Ourmonitoring program evaluates 100% of our global contract factories at leastannually for approved factories, and more frequently for factories with majornon-conformances. With 27 employees spread across five countries, our compliancestaff is multi-lingual, with the majority holding a post-secondary educationdegree. In addition to our internal staff, we retain a number of recognized,unaffiliated third party workplace compliance audit firms to conduct factoryaudits on our behalf. In 2008, 1,061 audits were conducted, including 783 bythird party auditors. 

        Although there are no perfectmonitoring systems, we are constantly improving our program in order to addresscompliance issues that we encounter. We believe that a majority of our factoriessatisfy our code of conduct requirements. In August 2006, we instituted a scorecardsystem to assign risk levels objectively based on audit results. The scorecardconcept is a data-driven process with the underlying premise that not allviolations should be treated equally, and that some findings are more seriousand not as easily corrected as others. By comparing audit results, the scorecardsystem allows us to evaluate and determine where monitoring is needed most. Overtime, audit scores reflect the compliance status of a factory, making it auseful tool for internal production divisions to benchmark their factories,vendors and agents when making sourcing decisions. 

        To facilitate factories'understanding of our expectations and compliance requirements, we recentlyreleased the Jones Corporate Compliance Guidebook, a comprehensive guide to ourcompliance standards. The purpose of the guidebook is to provide suppliers witha detailed, informative and easy-to-follow reference of our expectations in theareas that we monitor. The Guidebook includes country-specific supplements,which contain an overview of the legal requirements unique to a country. Todate, we have made the guidebook and supplements available in three languages(English, Chinese and Vietnamese) and are in the process of drafting additionalcountry-specific supplements.

*Beyond Monitoring*        Reliance on audits alone creates the risk that whatever improvements we do see may betemporary and cosmetic. To address this, a large part of our compliance programemphasizes uncovering the root causes of factory noncompliance and providingfactories with the tools and training needed to sustain a viable long-termcompliance program. 

        The basic goal of our "beyondmonitoring" programs is to increase factories' abilities to establish asustainable management system. We are moving to a model of partnering withsuppliers to achieve sustainable compliance through proactive solutions. We havecome to understand that factories must embed ethical business practices based onstrong management systems into all of their business operations. 

        Our beyond monitoring programsfocus on providing factories with the tools and knowledge to take responsibilityfor their social compliance practices. From our experience, the process iscomplicated and challenges factories' standard business practices. Recognizingthis, we have taken the approach of dividing the programs into three phases:knowledge transfer, knowledge absorption and knowledge implementation. Together,these phases create a continuous process of feedback, reinforcement andimprovement. 

        Since 2007, we have facilitatednumerous training programs which include human resource management, health andsafety, and managing employment relations. As of December 2008, 17 sessions oftraining were conducted, and 172 suppliers have attended these trainings.Ultimately, we believe that if we can help factories to build effectivemanagement systems, we can facilitate and empower factories to createsustainable solutions. 

        Our compliance specialists workclosely with factories producing our products to develop and implementsustainable management systems for labor. By working with the factoriesone-on-one, we have seen marked improvements in many of our factories, in areassuch as wages and benefits, health and safety, employees' understanding of theirrights under the local labor laws and communication between management andworkers.

        Additionally, we have establishedstrong relationships with local and U.S. government officials, the InternationalLabour Organization ("ILO") and trade union representatives. These relationshipspromote ongoing dialog and have enabled us to address issues proactively as theyarise in the field. 

*Internal Alignment*        The effectiveness of any supply chainmonitoring effort is dependent on the cooperation and collaboration amongdifferent divisions across a company. On a daily basis, our compliance groupcommunicates the compliance status of suppliers to internal business units andprovides advice on how we can work together to help key factories to improve. Werecognize that in order for factories to make progress in their labor and healthand safety practices, our internal business units must understand the principlesembodied in the JAG Standards and support monitoring efforts with theirinfluence over factories.

        Starting in 2008, we have beenissuing periodic corporate social responsibility ("CSR") newsletters to all ouremployees, to communicate our compliance efforts, the major issues that affectfactories' compliance, and the important CSR issues of the day. Additionally, tobetter understand how we as buyers affect a factory's ability to be sociallycompliant, we began conducting a "reverse scorecard" survey to obtain feedbackfrom suppliers. The purpose of the reverse scorecard is to provide supplierswith an opportunity to offer their opinions as a business partner working withus along several lines, such as communication, technical support, and time andaction. As we move into 2009, we will be utilizing these results to determinehow we as buyers can be better business partners to our suppliers. 

*Engagement with Other Interested Parties*        Like any multinational company, ourbusiness practices impact a diverse group, including business associates,governments, trade unions, non-governmental organizations ("NGOs") and employeesboth working for us and for the factories making our products. A key element inour compliance program is engagement with these parties, which encompassesissues of factory compliance and human rights, and occurs at various levels -factory, community and multi-lateral initiatives. 

        At the factory level, we have beenactively involved in the ILO's Better Work program, along with other recognizedinternational brands. The Better Work program combines independent factoryassessments with advisory and training services to support practicalimprovements in factories. It is currently operational in Cambodia, withprograms in Jordan and Vietnam starting in early 2009 and plans to expand toother countries as well. By joining Better Factories Cambodia, we are committedto accepting ILO monitoring reports and have stopped auditing factories inCambodia. We have also been working closely with the ILO from conception to theexpected implementation of the Better Work Jordan program and are involved inmulti-brand meetings related to the expansion of this global initiative.Engagement with Better Work gives us a platform for brand cooperation andbenefits our suppliers by reducing their number of audits, which allows them tofocus more of their time toward sustainable improvements. 

        We have been working with AfricaNow, an international development organization tackling poverty in Africa byhelping small-scale producers and promoting ethical trade, to build its socialauditing programs in Africa. The proceeds that Africa Now receives fromconducting social audits for brands, including ours, provides support for itsprograms, such as capacity building, establishment of a permanent presence inEgypt and developing new social audit teams in countries not currently serviced.

        Periodically, we convene vendorsummits in major sourcing countries to bring together a wide variety of partnersand provide them with both updates to our programs and opportunities forexchanging ideas and concerns. These meetings give participants a forum forworking together to identify challenges and opportunities in the countries inwhich they operate, as well as to complete case studies based on real-lifesituations we have encountered through our monitoring program. In 2008, we heldvendor summits in Asia, the Middle East and Africa, which were attended by themajority of our supplier factories. Invitees to these summits also includeagents, trade unions, NGOs and local and U.S. government officials. Ongoingcommunications with key participants after these summits makes it possible forus to stay informed and anticipate potential problems before they occur. Thegoal of all of these efforts is to facilitate improvements in the laborconditions throughout our supply chain.

*Philanthropy and Community Involvement*        We strive to be a trusted andresponsible member of the communities in which we work and live. To accomplishthis goal, we promote and support employees to make a positive impact, through acombination of monetary and product donations and volunteer support. In 2008, weand our associates contributed time and money to a number of causes at the localcommunity, national and global levels. 

        In May 2005, we launched acharitable cause initiative, including the establishment of Jones New York InThe Classroom, Inc., a not-for-profit corporation, with an initial grant from usof $1 million and a commitment of our continued support. Jones New York In TheClassroom is dedicated to improving the quality of education in America andinspiring others, both individuals and corporations, to do the same throughsupport of teachers and vital teacher-based programs in America's schools. It isfocused on four areas of support for teachers: recruitment, retention,professional development and recognition and support. 

        Our commitment since the launch in2005 has also included support for events to raise public awareness of Jones NewYork In The Classroom and its goals for teachers and education, as well asinitiatives to encourage our employees to participate in volunteer opportunitiesand fundraising for Jones New York In The Classroom, and the other non-profitorganizations it supports. Our corporate employees have the opportunity tovolunteer up to three hours of paid time off each month in educationalfacilities in their local communities. Each of our business locations isencouraged to raise or budget funds to adopt a classroom to help with dailyclassroom needs through Adopt-A-Classroom. Additional activities of Jones NewYork In The Classroom can be found at www.jnyintheclassroom.org. 

        In addition to the localizedcommunity efforts, we took part in a number of national and industry-sponsoredfundraising events. These efforts included either monetary or product donationsto the American Heart Association, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Dress forSuccess, Fashion Footwear Charitable Foundation, Fashion Footwear Association ofNew York (FFANY) Shoes on Sale, Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, and St. Jude'sChildren's Research Hospital. 

        On a global level, we donatedproduct to various charitable organizations world-wide. These organizationsinclude: Gifts In Kind International, Samaritan's Feet, Soles for Souls, and theSusie Reizod Foundation, all of which donate shoes to community charities,children, or the indigent in the United States and abroad. This past year alsowitnessed one of the worst earthquakes in Chinese history. In an effort to helpthose displaced by the earthquake; we challenged our associates to makedonations to the cause and matched 100% of employee contributions, which wasdonated to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies,and the Hong Kong Red Cross China Relief fund. 

*The Greening of Jones Apparel Group*        With a goal of reducing our carbonfootprint, we have established an Executive Green Committee to exploreenvironmental opportunities throughout the company. The Executive GreenCommittee consists of ten strategic business executives having direct impact onour decisions to incorporate green initiatives. Additionally, we have identifiedmore than 200 of our associates to be "eco-ambassadors" working in parallel withthe Executive Green Committee to raise environmental awareness among employees,exemplify green practices in the workplace, and brainstorm new ways to increaseefficiencies and adopt environmentally-friendly practices. 

*Energy Reduction in the Distribution Centers and Retail Locations*        We have been exploring innovativeways to reduce costs while obtaining environmental benefits. We implemented alighting retrofit solution in an effort to reduce energy use at our WestDeptford, N.J., distribution centers, which was completed in May 2008. The WestDeptford pre-project vs. post-project power meter readings showed a reduction inkilowatt use, yielding a reduction in the electricity costs. Additionally, weare improving lighting at our retail store locations. Lighting retrofits andreplacements of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems arereducing not only energy use, but financial costs as well. In retail stores, thenew lighting fixtures generate less heat, decreasing HVAC energy use. Based on the results of these projects, we are committed toexplore similar opportunities in other distribution centers.

*Reduce the Use*        Our REDUCE THE USE campaign has beenput in place to create awareness, to decrease our use of paper and othersupplies and to lower the overall costs of paper products. Additionalinitiatives to control costs and reduce consumption are in process or underconsideration, including converting to recycled materials wherevercost-feasible.

*Green Collateral and Packaging Initiative*        The goal and mission of the JAGreenPrinted Materials & Packaging Group is to evaluate the current use of paper asit relates to our hangtags, shoeboxes, shopping bags and printed collateral tobegin to move toward more significant use of recycled, renewable and ForestStewardship Council (FSC) rated materials without increases in costs.Additionally, we are working with other industry leaders to developenvironmentally-friendly hangers. 

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

        There are certain risks anduncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materiallyfrom those anticipated. Risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect usinclude, without limitation, the following factors. 

        *The apparel, footwear andaccessories industries are heavily influenced by general economic cycles thataffect consumer spending. A prolonged period of depressed consumer spendingwould have a material adverse effect on us.*

        The apparel, footwear andaccessories industries have historically been subject to cyclical variations,recessions in the general economy and uncertainties regarding future economicprospects that affect consumer spending habits, which could negatively impactour business. The success of our operations depends on a number of factorsimpacting discretionary consumer spending, including general economicconditions, consumer confidence, wages and unemployment, housing prices,consumer debt, interest rates, fuel and energy costs, taxation and politicalconditions. A continuation or worsening of the current downturn in the economymay affect consumer purchases of our products and adversely impact our growthand profitability. 

        *The current state of theeconomy and the tightening of commercial credit markets may impair our abilityto obtain credit on favorable terms.*

        We rely on our revolving creditfacilities for backing the issuance of trade letters of credit and other supplychain purposes, and also from time to time for cash borrowings for workingcapital and general corporate purposes. Our current $600 million revolvingcredit facility matures on May 16, 2010. The loss of the use of this facility orthe inability to replace this facility when it expires would materially impairour ability to purchase product from our network of independent foreignmanufacturers. In addition, considering the uncertainties of the presenteconomic environment, it is possible, in general, that one or more committedlenders would not meet its obligations to lend to borrowers. 

        *We may not be able to respondto changing fashion and retail trends in a timely manner, which could have amaterial adverse effect on us.*

        The apparel, footwear andaccessories industries have historically been subject to rapidly changingfashion trends and consumer preferences. We believe that our success is largelydependent on our ability to anticipate and respond promptly to changing consumerdemands and fashion trends in the design, styling and production of our productsand in the merchandising and pricing of products in our retail stores. If we donot gauge consumer needs and fashion trends and respond appropriately, thenconsumers may not purchase our products. This would result in reduced sales andprofitability and in excess inventories, which would have a material adverseeffect on us. 

 

- 22 -

        We believe that consumers in theUnited States are shopping less in department stores (our traditionaldistribution channel) and more in other channels, such as specialty shops andmid-tier locations where value is perceived to be higher. In response, our strategyinvolves adding new distribution channels, increasing investment in our corebrands by focusing on design, quality and value, remodeling our retail locationsand implementing new and enhanced retail systems. Despite our efforts to respondto these trends, there can be no assurance that these trends will not have amaterial adverse effect on us. 

        *The loss of or a significantreduction of business with any of our largest customers would have a materialadverse effect on us.*

        Our ten largest customer groups,principally department stores, accounted for approximately 58% of revenues in2008. Macy's, Inc. accounted for approximately 21% of our 2008 gross revenues.

        We believe that purchasingdecisions are generally made independently by department store units within acustomer group. There has been a trend, however, toward more centralizedpurchasing decisions. As such decisions become more centralized, the risk to usof such concentration increases. A decision by the controlling owner of acustomer group of department stores to modify those customers' relationshipswith us (for example, decreasing the amount of product purchased from us,modifying floor space allocated to apparel in general or our productsspecifically, or focusing on promotion of private label products rather than ourproducts) could have a material adverse effect on us. Furthermore, we believe atrend exists among our major customers to concentrate purchasing among anarrowing group of vendors. To the extent any of our key customers reduces thenumber of vendors and consequently does not purchase from us, this would have amaterial adverse effect on us. 

        In the future, retailers may havefinancial problems or consolidate, undergo restructurings or reorganizations, orrealign their affiliations, any of which could further increase theconcentration of our customers. The loss of any of our largest customers, or thebankruptcy or material financial difficulty of any large customer, could have amaterial adverse effect on us. We do not have long-term contracts with any ofour customers, and sales to customers generally occur on an order-by-orderbasis. As a result, customers can terminate their relationships with us at anytime or under certain circumstances cancel or delay orders. 

        *The apparel, footwear andaccessories industries are highly competitive. Any increased competition couldresult in reduced sales or prices, or both, which could have a material adverseeffect on us.*

Apparel, footwear and accessories companies face competition on many fronts,including the following: 
- establishing and maintaining favorable brand recognition; 
- developing products that appeal to consumers; 
- pricing products appropriately; and
- obtaining access to retail outlets and sufficient floor space. 

        There is intense competition inthe sectors of the apparel, footwear and accessories industries in which weparticipate. We compete with many other manufacturers and retailers, some ofwhich are larger and have greater resources than we do. Any increasedcompetition could result in reduced sales or prices, or both, which could have amaterial adverse effect on us. 

        We compete primarily on the basisof fashion, price and quality. We believe our competitive advantages include ourability to anticipate and respond quickly to changing consumer demands, ourbrand names and range of products and our ability to operate within theindustries' production and delivery constraints. Furthermore, our establishedbrand names and relationships with retailers have resulted in a loyal followingof customers. 

- 23 -

        We believe that, during the pastfew years, major department stores and specialty retailers have beenincreasingly sourcing products from suppliers who are well capitalized or haveestablished reputations for delivering quality merchandise in a timely manner.However, there can be no assurance that significant new competitors will notdevelop in the future.

        We also provide design andmanufacturing resources to several of our wholesale customers to develop productlines to be sold under their own private labels. These private label linescompete directly with our product lines and may receive more prominentpositioning on the retail floor by department stores. While this creates morecompetition, we believe that national brands are often preferred by theconsumer. 

        *The loss of key personnel coulddisrupt our operations and our ability to successfully execute our strategies.*

        Our executive officers and othermembers of senior management have substantial experience and expertise in ourbusiness. Our success depends to a significant extent both upon the continuedservices of these individuals as well as our ability to attract, hire, motivateand retain additional talented and highly qualified management in the future.Competition for key executives in the apparel, footwear and accessoriesindustries is intense, and our operations and the execution of our businessstrategies could be adversely affected if we cannot attract and retain qualifiedexecutives and other key personnel. 

        *Our reliance on independentmanufacturers could cause delay and damage our reputation and customerrelationships.*

        We rely upon independent thirdparties for the manufacture of most of our products. A manufacturer's failure toship products to us in a timely manner or to meet the required quality standardscould cause us to miss the delivery date requirements of our customers for thoseitems. The failure to make timely deliveries may drive customers to cancelorders, refuse to accept deliveries or demand reduced prices, any of which couldhave a material adverse effect on us. This could damage our reputation. We donot have long-term written agreements with any of our third party manufacturers.As a result, any of these manufacturers may unilaterally terminate theirrelationships with us at any time. 

        Although we have an active programto train our independent manufacturers in, and monitor their compliance with,our labor and other factory standards, any failure by those manufacturers tocomply with our standards or any other divergence in their labor or otherpractices from those generally considered ethical in the United States and thepotential negative publicity relating to any of these events could materiallyharm us and our reputation. 

        *The extent of our foreignoperations and contract manufacturing may adversely affect our domesticbusiness.*

        Nearly all of our products aremanufactured outside of North America. The following may adversely affectforeign operations: 
- political instability in countries where contractors and suppliers are	located; 
- imposition of regulations and quotas relating to imports; 
- imposition of duties, taxes and other charges on imports; 
- significant fluctuation of the value of the dollar against foreign	currencies; 
- labor shortages in countries where contractors and suppliers are	located; and
- restrictions on the transfer of funds to or from foreign countries. 

        As a result of our foreignoperations, our domestic business is subject to the following risks: 
- A reduction in available manufacturing capacity, resulting from the	closing of foreign factories that have experienced substantial declines in	orders;
- uncertainties of sourcing associated with an environment in which	general quota has been eliminated on apparel products pursuant to the World	Trade Organization Agreement;

- 24 -
- reduced manufacturing flexibility because of geographic distance between	us and our foreign manufacturers, increasing the risk that we may have to	mark down unsold inventory as a result of misjudging the market for a	foreign-made product;
- increases in manufacturing costs in the event of a decline in the value	of the United States dollar against major world currencies, particularly the	Chinese Yuan, and higher labor costs being experienced by our foreign	manufacturers in China; and
- violations by foreign contractors of labor and wage standards and	resulting adverse publicity. 

        *Fluctuations in the price,availability and quality of raw materials could cause delay and increase costs.*

        Fluctuations in the price,availability and quality of the fabrics or other raw materials used by us in ourmanufactured apparel and in the price of materials used to manufacture ourfootwear and accessories could have a material adverse effect on our cost ofsales or our ability to meet our customers' demands. The prices for such fabricsdepend largely on the market prices for the raw materials used to produce them,particularly cotton, leather and synthetics. The price and availability of suchraw materials may fluctuate significantly, depending on many factors, includingcrop yields and weather patterns. In the future, we may not be able to pass allor a portion of such higher raw materials prices on to our customers. 

        *Difficulties in implementingnew computer systems and software could impact our ability to design, produceand ship our products on a timely basis.*

        We continually improve and upgradeour computer systems and software and are in the process of implementing theSAP Apparel and Footwear Solution as our core operational and financial system.The implementation of the SAP Apparel and Footwear Solution software, whichbegan at select locations in November 2006, is a key part of our ongoing effortsto eliminate redundancies and enhance our overall cost structure and marginperformance. Difficulties migrating existing systems to new software couldimpact our ability to design, produce and ship our products on a timely basis.

        *The loss or infringement of ourtrademarks and other proprietary rights could have a material adverse effect onus.*

        We believe that our trademarks andother proprietary rights are important to our success and competitive position.Accordingly, we devote substantial resources to the establishment and protectionof our trademarks on a worldwide basis. There can be no assurances that suchactions taken to establish and protect our trademarks and other proprietaryrights will be adequate to prevent imitation of our products by others or toprevent others from seeking to block sales of our products as violative of theirtrademarks and proprietary rights. Moreover, there can be no assurances thatothers will not assert rights in, or ownership of, our trademarks and otherproprietary rights or that we will be able to successfully resolve suchconflicts. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries may not protectproprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Theloss of such trademarks and other proprietary rights, or the loss of theexclusive use of such trademarks and other proprietary rights, could have amaterial adverse effect on us. Any litigation regarding our trademarks could betime-consuming and costly.

**ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'SDISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**
        The following discussion providesinformation and analysis of our results of operations from 2006 through 2008,and our liquidity and capital resources. The following discussion and analysisshould be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statementsincluded elsewhere herein. 

**Executive Overview**

        We design, contract for themanufacture of and market a broad range of women's collection sportswear, suitsand dresses, casual sportswear and jeanswear for women and children, and women'sfootwear and accessories. We sell our products through a broad array ofdistribution channels, including better specialty and department stores and massmerchandisers, primarily in the United States and Canada. We also operate ourown network of retail and factory outlet stores and several e-commerce websites. In addition, we license the use of several of our brand names to selectmanufacturers and distributors of women's and men's apparel and accessoriesworldwide. 

        During 2008, the followingsignificant events took place: 
- in February 2008, we announced that Wal-Mart Stores Inc. ("Wal-Mart")	would be the exclusive retailer of our  l.e.i.  brand for juniors, junior plus	and girls beginning with the 2008 back-to-school shopping season at Walmart	stores nationwide;
- in May 2008, we announced the sale of our remaining Mexican operations;	
- in June 2008, we announced that we successfully completed amendments to	our $1 billion and $750 million five-year revolving credit facilities	(reducing the $1 billion facility commitment to $500 million), and in	December 2008, we announced we had terminated the $500 million facility and	further amended the $750 million facility (reducing the commitment to $600	million);
- in June 2008, we announced that we formed a joint venture with Royale	Etenia LLC ("Royale") to develop, market and license the New York-based	fashion brand  Rachel Roy  and that we also assumed the operating assets and	liabilities of Rachel Roy Fashions, Inc.;
- in June 2008, we announced that we acquired a minority interest in GRI	Group Limited, an international accessories and apparel brand management and	retail-distribution network;
- in June 2008, we announced the completion of our accelerated stock	repurchase ("ASR") program;
- in July 2008, we announced we had entered into an agreement with New	Balance Athletic Shoe, Inc. ("New Balance") to license, create and	distribute a fashion-lifestyle footwear collection that brings together New	Balance's innovative performance and materials technology with Nine West's	fashion styling; and
- on August 5, 2008, Standard & Poor's removed our corporate credit and	senior unsecured debt ratings from credit watch and lowered the ratings to	BB from BB+. It further lowered the ratings to BB- on October 29, 2008 while	maintaining its previously-assigned negative outlook. On October 20, 2008,	Moody's lowered our corporate family and probability of default ratings to	Ba2 from Ba1 and assigned a ratings outlook of stable. As a result of the	amendments to our revolving credit facility expiring on May 16, 2010,	Standard & Poor's further downgraded our senior unsecured debt ratings from	BB- to B+ on January 6, 2009, and Moody's further downgraded our senior	unsecured debt ratings from Ba2 to Ba3 on January 8, 2009.

**Trends**

        The current economic environmenthas resulted in lower consumer confidence and lower retail sales. This trend maylead to further reduced consumer spending, which could affect our net sales andour future profitability. Therefore, we have taken aggressive cost reductionactions to address the uncertainty posed by the current economic conditions andto protect our future profitability. Cost reduction actions underway areanticipated to result in annualized cash savings of approximately $33 million.These actions include personnel reductions, elimination of certain unprofitabledivisions and a reduction in discretionary spending. In addition to costreduction actions, we have reduced our 2009 planned capital spending toapproximately $40 - $45 million from the $71.2 million expended in 2008. 

- 32 -

Our Board of Directors has also approved a reduction in our quarterly cashdividend from $0.14 per share to $0.05 per share.

        We believe that severalsignificant trends are occurring in the women's apparel, footwear andaccessories industry. We believe that a trend exists among our major retailaccounts to concentrate their women's apparel, footwear and accessories buyingamong a narrowing group of vendors and to differentiate their product offeringsthrough exclusivity of brands. We also believe that consumers in the UnitedStates and Canada are shopping in multiple channels, including specialty shopsand national chains where value is perceived to be higher. We have responded tothese trends by enhancing the brand equity of our brands through our focus ondesign, quality and value, and through strategic acquisitions which providesignificant diversification to the business by successfully adding newdistribution channels, labels and product lines. Through this diversification,we have evolved into a multidimensional resource in apparel, footwear andaccessories and retail. We have leveraged the strength of our brands to increaseboth the number of locations and amount of selling space in which our productsare offered and to introduce product extensions. We have also leveraged ourdesign, production and marketing capabilities to develop and provide proprietarybranded and private label products to major wholesale customers. 

        We also believe that consumerswill continue to increase their purchasing of apparel, footwear and accessoriesthrough e-commerce web sites. During 2008, we upgraded our existing sites,www.ninewest.com, www.easyspirit.com and www.bandolino.com, and launchedwww.jny.com. We also plan to launch www.anneklein.com in early 2009. Through these websites, we market either footwear and accessories, apparel or a combination of theseproducts, primarily under their respective brand names. The selection ofproducts is substantially consistent with the product offerings in ourcorresponding retail store concepts. Our e-commerce systems allow us to fulfillcustomer orders from inventory at our retail store locations if the items arenot available at our distribution center. 

        On January 1, 2005, the WorldTrade Organization's 148 member nations lifted all quotas on apparel andtextiles. As a result, all textiles and textile apparel manufactured in a membernation and exported after January 1, 2005 are no longer subject to quotarestrictions. A special safeguard provision that had provided the U.S. with anadditional four years beyond January 1, 2005 to apply quotas on Chinese importsof textiles expired on December 31, 2008. The lifting of quotas and expirationof safeguard provisions allows retailers, apparel firms and others to importunlimited quantities of apparel and textile items from China, India and otherlow-cost countries, which could lead to lower production costs, allow us toimprove the quality of our products for a given cost, or allow us to concentrateproduction in the most efficient markets. However, litigation and political activity have been initiated by interested partiesseeking to re-impose quotas. In addition, if the prices of the imported goodscan be shown to be less than those offered by domestic producers for the sameitems, the U.S. International Trade Commission may recommend that anti-dumpingduties be imposed on those goods. As a result, we are unable to predict thelong-term effects of the lifting of quota restrictions and related events on ourresults of operations. 

***Rachel Roy* Joint Venture**

        On June 10, 2008, we formed ajoint venture with Royale to develop, market and license the New York-basedfashion brand *Rachel Roy*. Under the terms of the agreement, we own a 50%interest in the joint venture, with the remaining interest owned by Royale. Thejoint venture plans to develop the *Rachel Roy* brand through continuedglobal expansion of the wholesale business, introduction of new productcategories, and stand-alone retail stores in key U.S. and internationallocations. Rachel Roy will continue to lead the design of the brand. We alsoassumed the operations and the assets and liabilities of the existing designercollection business formerly operated by Rachel Roy Fashions, Inc. under alicense with the new joint venture. These entities are consolidated by us and,accordingly, the results of operations are reflected in our financialstatements. In connection with the acquisition, no material assets orliabilities were recorded in this transaction.

**Investment in GRI**

        On June 20, 2008, we acquired a10% equity interest in GRI, an international accessories and apparel brandmanagement and retail-distribution network, for $20.2 million. GRI, which(including its franchisees) operates over 800 points of sale in 12 Asiancountries, is the exclusive licensee of several of our brands in Asia, including *Nine West, Anne Klein New York, AK AnneKlein, Easy Spirit, Enzo Angiolini* and *Joan & David*. GRI alsodistributes other women's apparel, shoes and accessory brands. 

        Under the terms of our investment,GRI will be entitled to receive a future cash payment from us of up to $10.0million if GRI's net income for its fiscal year ending January 31, 2009 exceedsa specified earnings target. Any additional payment will be recorded as anadditional investment in GRI but will not increase our 10% equity interest.Based on projected results of GRI for the remainder of its fiscal year, wecurrently do not anticipate making any additional payments. The results of GRIare reported under the equity method of accounting. 

**Accelerated Share Repurchase Program**

        On September 6, 2007, we enteredinto an ASR agreement with Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman") to repurchase $400million of our outstanding common stock. Purchases under the ASR were subject tocollar provisions that established minimum and maximum numbers of shares basedgenerally on the volume-weighted average price of our common stock during theterm of the ASR program. Final settlement of the ASR program was scheduled forno later than July 19, 2008 and could occur earlier at the option of Goldman orlater under certain circumstances. Through June 5, 2008, 17.9 million shares hadbeen delivered to us by Goldman under the terms of the ASR. On June 5, 2008,Goldman informed us that it had concluded the ASR. As a result, we received afinal delivery of 3.2 million shares on June 10, 2008, bringing the aggregatenumber of shares received under the ASR program to 21.1 million shares. No cashwas required to complete the final delivery of shares. The combined averageprice for the shares delivered under the ASR was $19.00 per share. 

**Strategic Decisions Regarding Certain Moderate Apparel Brands**

        Our continued strategicoperational reviews and efforts to improve profitability and the continued trendof our moderate and jeanswear customers towards differentiated product offeringsled us to make the strategic decision to exit some of our moderate apparelproduct lines during 2007. As a result of this exit, we renamed our wholesalemoderate apparel segment as our wholesale jeanswear segment to better reflectthe products we produce in that segment. We believe that exiting these productlines will strengthen our future operating results and allow us to focusprimarily on growth opportunities in our remaining wholesale product lines,which have strong fundamentals and operate at higher margins. This decision didnot impact in any way our denim and junior division labels such as *GloriaVanderbilt, l.e.i., Energie, GLO, Grane* and others, which are also reportedin the wholesale jeanswear segment. The moderate product lines we exited havenot been classified as discontinued operations as they do not meet the criteriafor discontinued operations as set forth in SFAS No. 144. As a result of theloss of these projected revenues, we recorded impairments for our *NortonMcNaughton* and *Erika* trademarks of $80.5 million in our licensing,other and eliminations segment in 2007. In connection with this decision, weclosed our Goose Creek, South Carolina and Edison, New Jersey distributioncenters. See "Accrued Restructuring Costs" in Notes to Consolidated FinancialStatements. 

        We announced in February 2008 thatWal-Mart would be the exclusive retailer of our *l.e.i.* brand for juniors,junior plus and girls beginning with the 2008 back-to-school shopping season atWal-Mart stores nationwide. 

**Sale of Mexican Operations**

        On September 12, 2006, weannounced the closing of our Mexican operations related to the decision by Poloto discontinue the *Polo Jeans Company* product line, which we produced forPolo subsequent to the sale of the *Polo Jeans Company* business to Polo inFebruary 2006. At that time, we determined the estimated fair value of theproperty, plant and equipment employed in Mexico was less than its carrying 

- 34 -

value. As a result, we recorded an impairment loss of $8.6 million, which wasreported as cost of sales in the wholesale jeanswear segment in 2006. Theclosing was substantially completed by the end of March 2007. On May 8, 2008, wesold the Mexican operations for $5.9 million, resulting in a gain of $0.2million.

**Sale of Barneys**

        On September 6, 2007, we completedthe sale of Barneys to an affiliate of Istithmar PJSC. We received $937.4million of cash (net of working capital adjustments) and paid an aggregate of$54.6 million in cash for bonuses for key Barneys employees, compensation forrestricted stock held by certain employees of Barneys that was forfeited uponthe completion of the sale and other fees and costs related to the sale. 

        As a result of the capital gaingenerated by the sale of Barneys, we reversed a $107.7 million deferred taxvaluation allowance previously created from capital loss carryforwards that wehad not expected to be able to utilize. The reversal of the tax valuationallowance has been recorded in income from continuing operations in 2007. 

        In accordance with the provisionsof SFAS No. 144, the results of operations of Barneys for the current and priorperiods have been reported as discontinued operations and the assets andliabilities relating to Barneys have been reclassified as held for sale for allprior periods in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. 

**Sale of *Polo Jeans Company* Business in 2006**

        In February 2006, we reached asettlement of certain litigation that we had commenced in 2003 with Polo. Inconnection with this settlement, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement withPolo and certain of its subsidiaries with respect to the sale to Polo of alloutstanding stock of Sun. Among other terms, we received gross proceeds of$355.0 million in connection with the sale and the settlement. Sun's assets andliabilities on the closing date primarily related to the *Polo Jeans Company*business, which Sun operated under long-term license and design agreementsentered into with Polo in 1995. 

        We recorded a pre-tax loss ofapproximately $145.1 million after allocating $356.7 million of goodwill to thebusiness sold and a pre-tax gain of $100.0 million related to the litigationsettlement. Approximately $3.7 million in state and local taxes were accruedrelated to the litigation settlement, resulting in a combined after tax loss ofapproximately $48.8 million. The combined loss created federal and state capitalloss carryforwards that we are using to partially offset the gain realized fromthe sale of Barneys. 

**Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets**

        Goodwill represents the excess ofthe purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to net tangible andidentifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for underthe purchase method. Accounting rules require that we test at least annually forpossible goodwill impairment. We perform our test in the fourth fiscal quarterof each year using a discounted cash flow analysis that requires that certainassumptions and estimates be made regarding industry economic factors and futureprofitability. As a result of the 2006 impairment analysis, we determined thatthe goodwill balance existing in our wholesale jeanswear segment was impaired asa result of decreases in projected revenues and profitability with respect tocertain moderate apparel brands, as well as changes in business strategy withrespect to our *Norton McNaughton* brand. Accordingly, we recorded animpairment charge of $441.2 million. As a result of the 2007 impairmentanalysis, we determined that the remaining goodwill balance existing in ourwholesale jeanswear segment was impaired as a result of decreases in projectedrevenues and profitability for certain brands. Accordingly, we recorded animpairment charge of $78.0 million. As a result of the 2008 impairment analysis,we determined that the goodwill balance existing in our wholesale footwear andaccessories segment was impaired as a result of decreases in projected revenuesand profitability for this segment. Accordingly, we recorded an impairmentcharge of $813.2 million. 

        We also perform our annualimpairment test for trademarks during the fourth fiscal quarter of the year. Asa result of the 2006 impairment analysis, we recorded trademark impairmentcharges of $50.2 

- 35 -

million as a result of decreases in projected revenues for certain moderateapparel, better apparel, footwear and costume jewelry brands. We also recordedtrademark impairment charges of $80.5 million in 2007 as a result of ourdecision to discontinue or significantly reduce the scale of certain moderateapparel brands. As a result of the 2007 and 2008 impairment analyses, werecorded trademark impairment charges of $7.5 million and $25.2 million, respectively, as aresult of decreases in projected revenues for certain brands. All trademarkimpairment charges are reported as selling, general and administrative expensesin the licensing, other and eliminations segment. 

**Critical Accounting Policies**

        Several of our accounting policiesinvolve significant or complex judgements and uncertainties and require us tomake certain critical accounting estimates. We consider an accounting estimateto be critical if it requires us to make assumptions about matters that werehighly uncertain at the time the estimate was made. The estimates with thegreatest potential effect on our results of operations and financial positioninclude the collectibility of accounts receivable, the recovery value ofobsolete or overstocked inventory and the fair values of both our goodwill andintangible assets with indefinite lives. Estimates related to accountsreceivable affect our wholesale better apparel, wholesale jeanswear, wholesalefootwear and accessories and retail segments. Estimates related to inventory andgoodwill affect our wholesale better apparel, wholesale jeanswear, wholesalefootwear and accessories and retail segments. Estimates related to intangibleassets with indefinite lives affect all of our segments.

        For accounts receivable, weestimate the net collectibility, considering both historical and anticipatedtrends of trade discounts and co-op advertising deductions taken by ourcustomers, allowances we provide to our retail customers to flow goods throughthe retail channels, and the possibility of non-collection due to the financialposition of our customers. For inventory, we estimate the amount of goods thatwe will not be able to sell in the normal course of business and write down thevalue of these goods to the recovery value expected to be realized throughoff-price channels. Historically, actual results in these areas have not beenmaterially different than our estimates, and we do not anticipate that ourestimates and assumptions are likely to materially change in the future.However, if we incorrectly anticipate trends or unexpected events occur, ourresults of operations could be materially affected. 

        We test our goodwill and ourintangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment on an annual basis(during our fourth fiscal quarter) and between annual tests if an event occursor circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value ofan asset below its carrying value. We recorded goodwill impairments of $813.2million, $78.0 million and $441.2 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.We recorded trademark impairments of $25.2 million, $88.0 million and $50.2million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For more information, see"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in Notes to Consolidated FinancialStatements. 

        We test both our goodwill and ourtrademarks for impairment by utilizing discounted cash flow models to estimatetheir fair values. These cash flow models involve several assumptions. Changesin our assumptions could materially impact our fair value estimates. Assumptionscritical to our fair value estimates are: (i) discount rates used to derive thepresent value factors used in determining the fair value of the reporting unitsand trademarks; (ii) royalty rates used in our trade mark valuations; (iii)projected average revenue growth rates used in the reporting unit and trademarkmodels; and (iv) projected long-term growth rates used in the derivation ofterminal year values. These and other assumptions are impacted by economicconditions and expectations of management and will change in the future based onperiod-specific facts and circumstances. Based on our latest annual testing, thefollowing table shows the range of assumptions we used to derive our fair valueestimates and the hypothetical additional impairment charge for goodwill andtrademarks resulting from a one percentage point unfavorable change in each ofour fair value assumptions (amounts in millions).

        The impairment charges resultingfrom the goodwill impairment testing in 2008 were primarily the result of lowerprojected revenues and profitability across various product lines in ourwholesale footwear and accessories segment and an increase in the discount rate.The impairment charges resulting from the trademark impairment testing in 2008were primarily from decreases in projected revenues for certain footwear andcostume jewelry product lines and an increase in the discount rate. We increasedour discount rate from the 9.5% used in 2007 to 11.5% in 2008, which reflectsthe changes in our cost of capital and other factors. 

        At December 31, 2008, we had$160.7 million of goodwill remaining, of which $40.1 million has been assignedto the wholesale better apparel segment and $120.6 million has been assigned tothe retail segment. We also had $575.9 million of indefinite-lived trademarksremaining. Should the economic conditions and trends (such as reduced consumerspending) prevailing at December 31, 2008 continue to deteriorate throughout2009 and beyond, the goodwill assigned to our retail segment and the fair valuesof certain trademarks could become impaired. 

        Other than the assumptions used inthe impairment testing of our goodwill and trademarks, we have not made anymaterial changes to any of our critical accounting estimates in the last threeyears. Our senior management has discussed the development and selection of ourcritical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board ofDirectors. In addition, there are other items within our financial statementsthat require estimation, but are not deemed critical as defined above. Changesin estimates used in these and other items could have a material impact on ourfinancial statements.

**2008 Compared with 2007**

        ***Revenues.*** Totalrevenues for 2008 were $3.6 billion, compared with $3.8 billion for 2007, adecrease of 6.0%. Revenues by segment were as follows:
(In millions)         20082007Decrease Percent  Change    Wholesale better apparel$1,098.7 $1,101.0 $(2.3)(0.2%)Wholesale jeanswear 796.5  985.0  (188.5)(19.1%)Wholesale footwear and accessories 	938.3  	955.8  	(17.5)(1.8%)Retail  730.2  753.7  (23.5)(3.1%)Licensing and other 	52.7  	53.0  (0.3)	(0.6%)     Total revenues$3,616.4 $3,848.5 $(232.1)(6.0%)  
        Wholesale better apparel revenuesdid not materially change from 2007 to 2008. Shipments of our *Jones New YorkSignature* product line increased, due to both increased customer ordersbased on the performance of this brand at retail and initial shipments of ournew casual line of products, and shipments of our *Joneswear* and *AnneKlein* product lines also increased, due to increased customer orders basedon the performance of these brands at retail. These increases were offset bydecreased shipments of our *Jones New York,**Nine West* andspecialty market product lines, due to decreased orders from our customers basedon the performance of these brands at retail.  

        Wholesale jeanswear revenuesdecreased $188.5 million. Lower shipments of our *Rena Rowan, Nine & Co.,Evan-Picone, Bandolino, Pappagallo* and *Erika* moderate product lines,which were discontinued or repositioned in the market in 2007, reduced sales byapproximately $238.8 million. Initial shipments of our *l.e.i.* brand forjuniors, junior plus and girls to Wal-Mart under an exclusive retailingagreement and initial sales of the relaunched *Erika, Pappagallo* and *Evan-Picone* product lines during 2008 were partially offset by plannedreductions of our *GLO* product line to focus on the *l.e.i.* brandand lower shipments of our *Energie* product line, due to decreased ordersfrom our customers based on the performance of the brand at retail. 

        Wholesale footwear and accessoriesrevenues decreased $17.5 million. Lower sales of our *Nine West* and *Anne Klein* footwear products, primarily related to planned lower sales tovalue chain retailers and a shift in the market away from dress shoes towardscasual shoes, were partially offset by (i) increased shipments in ourinternational businesses due to continued expansion by our licenseeswho purchase product from us; (ii) increased shipments of our *Nine West*and *Nine & Co.* handbag product lines, due to increased orders from ourcustomers based on the performance of these brands at retail; and (iii) initialshipments of our *AK Anne Klein* handbag line. 

        Retail revenues decreased $23.5million, primarily due to a 4.3% decline in comparable store sales ($30.1million) resulting from decreased consumer spending relating to current economicconditions. Comparable stores are those that have been open for a full year, arenot scheduled to close in the current period and are not scheduled for anexpansion or downsize by more than 25% or relocation to a different street ormall. A 2.9% decrease in comparable store sales for our footwear stores ($12.9million) and a 12.4% decrease in comparable store sales for our apparel stores($28.5 million) were partially offset by a 57.5% increase in our e-commercebusiness ($11.3 million) and $18.1 million in sales from new store openings. Webegan 2008 with 1,034 retail locations and had a net decrease of 17 locationsduring the year to end the period with 1,017 locations. 

        Revenues for 2008 and 2007 include$0.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, in the licensing and other segmentof service fees charged to Barneys under a short-term transition servicesagreement entered into with Barneys at the time of the sale of Barneys. Theserevenues were based on contractual monthly fees as set forth in the agreement.The agreement ended in May 2008. 

        Revenues for 2007 include $1.2million of service fees charged to Polo under a short-term transition serviceagreement entered into with Polo at the time of the sale of the *Polo JeansCompany* business. These 

- 38 -

revenues were based on contractual monthly and per-unit fees as set forth inthe agreement. Of this amount, $1.0 million was recorded in the wholesale betterapparel segment and $0.2 million was recorded in the wholesale jeanswearsegment. The agreement ended in March 2007.

        ***Gross Profit.*** Thegross profit margin increased to 32.5% in 2008, compared with 32.2% in 2007. 

        Wholesale better apparel grossprofit margins were 31.3% and 32.4% for 2008 and 2007, respectively. Thedecrease was due to higher levels of sales to off-price retailers in our suitand dress product lines in 2008. 

        Wholesale jeanswear gross profitmargins were 21.9% and 18.6% for 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase isprimarily due to the negative impact in the prior period of high levels ofvendor allowances to clear inventory for the lower-margin moderate brands we hadplanned to exit or sell, the negative impact in the prior period of excessproduction capacity in the Mexican operations that we sold in May 2008, andlower levels of air shipments in 2008. 

        Wholesale footwear and accessoriesgross profit margins were 25.2% and 28.2% for 2008 and 2007, respectively. Thedecrease was due to higher levels of sales to off-price retailers to liquidateexcess inventory, higher levels of vendor allowances to clear inventory at theretail level, growth in our lower-margin international business and increasedproduction costs in China and other Pacific Rim countries in 2008. 

        Retail gross profit margins were49.6% and 48.4% for 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase was primarily theresult of lower levels of excess footwear inventory liquidation in the currentperiod, as the prior period included the liquidation of inventory related to theclosing of all of our Stein Mart retail locations. 

        ***Selling, General andAdministrative Expenses.*** Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A")expenses were $1.07 billion in 2008 and $1.10 billion in 2007. 

        Wholesale better apparel SG&Aexpenses decreased $14.1 million, primarily from $8.8 million of cost savingsrealized in 2008 by discontinuing the *Anne Klein* designer line, a $2.1 millionreduction in marketing expenses in 2008 and $5.9 million of expenses relating tothe closing of our Bristol, Pennsylvania warehouse which were recorded in 2007.These decreases were partially offset by $1.5 million of incremental bad debtexpense related to the bankruptcy filing of Boscov's, Inc. ("Boscov's"). 

        Wholesale jeanswear SG&A expensesdecreased $33.4 million, primarily from cost savings resulting from the exitfrom some of our moderate apparel product lines during 2007, which werepartially offset by a $4.2 million increase in administrative support costs,$1.9 million of advertising costs related to the launch of *l.e.i.* atWal-Mart and $6.8 million of incremental bad debt expense related to thebankruptcy filings of Goody's Family Clothing, Inc. ("Goody's"), Mervyn's LLC("Mervyn's"), Gottschalks Inc. ("Gottschalks") and Boscov's. 

        Wholesale footwear and accessoriesSG&A expenses increased $20.1 million, primarily due to a $5.5 million increasein advertising costs, a $5.2 million increase in administrative support costs, a$4.0 million increase in salary, bonus and employee benefit costs (includingpension costs), a $2.8 million increase in severance costs, a $2.3 millionincrease in sales and use taxes due to a tax audit settlement, a $1.1 millionincrease in distribution costs and $1.0 million of incremental bad debt expenserelated to the Goody's and Boscov's bankruptcy filings in 2008, offset by a $1.1million reduction in consulting fees as compared with 2007. 

        Retail SG&A expenses increased$8.2 million, primarily due to a $3.9 million increase in administrative supportcosts, a $3.8 million increase in depreciation expense and other occupancycosts, a $2.9 million increase in Canadian retail store operating costs and a$1.5 million write-off of computer software in 2008, partially offset by a $3.9million reduction in professional fees, severance costs and employee benefits ascompared with 2007. 

- 39 -

        SG&A expenses for the licensing,other and eliminations segment decreased $12.4 million, primarily due to amountsrecorded in 2007 relating to the termination of two former executive officers.

        ***Impairment Losses.***As a result of our annual goodwill impairment analyses, we recorded goodwillimpairments of $813.2 million in 2008 as a result of decreases in projectedrevenues and profitability for certain footwear and accessory brands and $78.0million in 2007 as a result of decreases in projected revenues and profitabilityfor certain moderate apparel brands. As a result of our annual trademarkimpairment analyses, we recorded trademark impairment charges of $25.2 millionand $7.5 million in 2008 and 2007, respectively, as a result of decreases inprojected revenues for certain brands. We also recorded trademark impairmentcharges of $80.5 million in 2007 as a result of our decision to discontinue orsignificantly reduce the scale of certain brands. For more information, see"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in Notes to Consolidated FinancialStatements. 

        ***Operating Loss.*** Theresulting operating loss from continuing operations for 2008 was $731.4 million,compared with $27.0 million for 2007, due to the factors described above. 

        ***Net Interest Expense.***Net interest expense from continuing operations was $41.6 million in 2008,compared with $47.8 million in 2007. The decrease was primarily the result of nooutstanding borrowings under our credit facilities and higher interest incomefrom higher cash balances during 2008. 

        ***Income Taxes.*** Theeffective income tax rate benefit on continuing operations was 0.8% and 178.4%for 2007 and 2006, respectively. Excluding the effects of the goodwill andtrademark impairments, the effective income tax rate on continuing operationswas 33.2% for 2008. Excluding the effects of the reversal of deferred taxvaluation allowances related to the sale of Barneys ($107.7 million) and thegoodwill impairment, the effective tax rate on continuing operations was 17.0%for 2007. The increase is due primarily to a lesser impact of the foreign incometax differential relative to pre-tax income in the current period than in theprior period. 

        ***Discontinued Operations.***Income from discontinued operations for 2008 includes a $0.9 million adjustmentto the after-tax gain on the sale of Barneys. Income from discontinuedoperations for 2007 includes a $254.2 million after-tax gain on the sale ofBarneys and $11.0 million of net income from the operation of Barneys prior tothe sale (see "Discontinued Operations" in Notes to Consolidated FinancialStatements). 

        ***Net (Loss) Income and (Loss)Income Per Share.*** Net loss was $(765.4) million in 2008, compared withnet income of $311.1 million in 2007, which included the $254.2 million gain onthe sale of Barneys. Diluted loss per share for 2008 was $(9.23), compared withearnings per share of $3.07 for 2007, on 18.2% fewer shares outstanding. 

**2007 Compared with 2006**

        ***Revenues.*** Totalrevenues for 2007 were $3.8 billion compared with $4.1 billion for 2006, adecrease of 5.8%. Revenues by segment were as follows:
(In millions)         20072006Increase      (Decrease
) Percent  Change    Wholesale better apparel$1,101.0 $1,127.4 $(26.4)(2.3%)Wholesale jeanswear 985.0  1,142.0  (157.0)(13.7%)Wholesale footwear and accessories 	955.8  	941.1  	14.7 	1.6% Retail  753.7  822.7  (69.0)(8.4%)Licensing and other 	53.0  	53.8  (0.8)	(1.5%)     Total revenues$3,848.5 $	4,087.0 $(238.5)	(5.8%)  
        Wholesale better apparel revenuesdecreased $26.4 million, primarily due to the effects of the sale of the *PoloJeans Company* business, which contributed $24.6 million in net sales in2006. Shipments of our *Jones New York Signature* and *Evan-Picone*product lines increased due to orders from our customers based on theperformance of these brands at retail. These increases were offset by decreasedshipments of our * *

- 40 -

*Jones New York Suit* product line due to decreased ordersfrom our customers based on the performance of this brands at retail anddecreased shipments of our *Jones New York, Anne Klein* and *Jones NewYork Sport*product lines due to decreased orders from our customers driven by theoverall challenging retail environment. 

        Wholesale jeanswear revenuesdecreased $157.0 million, primarily due to decreased shipments and highermarkdown allowances to clear inventory in the moderate brands we are exiting orsignificantly reducing (including the *Norton McNaughton, Bandolino, Nine &Co.* and *Rena Rowan* product lines, decreased shipments of our denimproduct lines due to decreased orders from our customers driven by the overallchallenging retail environment that developed during the fourth quarter of 2007and the discontinuance by our wholesale customers of their exclusive *W,Joneswear Jeans, C.L.O.T.H.E.S., Latina* and *Duckhead* product lines.These decreases were partially offset by increased shipments of our *Energie*product line due to increased orders from our customers based on the performanceof this brand at retail. 

        Wholesale footwear and accessoriesrevenues increased $14.7 million, primarily due to (1) increased shipping in ourinternational business due to increased orders from our existing customers andthe addition of new territories, (2) increased shipments of our *Nine West*and *Nine & Co.* handbag products due to higher customer orders from strongproduct performance at retail, and (3) the launch of our *Anne Klein New York,Joan & David, Boutique 9* and *l.e.i.* footwear product lines. Theseincreases were partially offset by reductions in our *Nine West* andcertain other footwear product lines due to retail consolidations and the timingof shipments to certain retailers and lower levels of sales to off-priceretailers. 

        Retail revenues decreased $69.0million, primarily due to the effect of the closing of our leased Stein Martlocations ($51.7 million), a 7.9% decline in footwear comparable store sales($37.9 million) and a 3.6% decline in apparel comparable store sales ($8.1million), offset by $29.3 million from new store openings. Excluding Barneys, webegan 2007 with 1,100 retail locations and had a net decrease of 66 locations(primarily the Stein Mart locations) during the period to end the period with1,034 locations. 

        Revenues for 2007 also include$1.0 million in the licensing and other segment of service fees charged toBarneys under a short-term transition services agreement entered into withBarneys at the time of the sale. These revenues are based on contractual monthlyfees as set forth in the agreement. 

        Revenues for 2007 and 2006 alsoinclude $1.2 million and $17.4 million, respectively, of service fees charged toPolo under a short-term transition service agreement entered into with Polo atthe time of the sale of the *Polo Jeans Company* business. These revenueswere based on contractual monthly and per-unit fees as set forth in theagreement. Of the 2007 amount, $1.0 million was recorded in the wholesale betterapparel segment and $0.2 million was recorded in the wholesale jeanswearsegment. Of the 2006 amount, $11.7 million was recorded in the wholesale betterapparel segment, $3.1 million was recorded in the wholesale jeanswear segmentand $2.6 million was recorded in the licensing and other segment. The agreementended in March 2007. 

        ***Gross Profit.***Thegross profit margin was 32.2% in 2007 and 34.6% in 2006. 

        Wholesale better apparel grossprofit margins were 32.4% and 36.5% for 2007 and 2006, respectively. Thedecrease was due to reduced sales of higher-margin *Polo Jeans Company*products as a result of the sale of the *Polo Jeans Company* business,higher levels of sales to off-price retailers and higher levels of markdowns toassist our customers with the overall challenging retail environment. 

        Wholesale jeanswear gross profitmargins were 18.6% and 21.2% for 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease was aresult of higher levels of markdowns to clear excess inventory and to assist ourcustomers with the overall challenging retail environment that developed duringthe fourth quarter of 2007, as well as higher levels of sales to off-priceretailers, higher production costs and higher levels of air freight. 

        Wholesale footwear and accessoriesgross profit margins were 28.2% and 28.6% for 2007 and 2006, respectively. Thedecrease was a result of a higher level of markdowns to clear excess inventoryand higher net sales in our lower-margin international business in 2007, offsetby the launch of our higher-margin *AK Anne Klein* jewelry line in 2007,and by markdowns related to the discontinuance of the 

- 41 -

licensed *Tommy Hilfiger*jewelry line and writedowns of excess inventory in our direct selling jewelryand accessory business in 2006.

        Retail gross profit margins were48.4% and 51.4% for 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease was the result ofa higher level of promotional activity in our footwear and accessories stores toliquidate excess inventory in 2007, partially offset by the liquidation ofinventory related to the closing of our Stein Mart locations in 2006.

        ***SG&A Expenses.*** SG&Aexpenses were approximately $1.1 billion in both 2007 and 2006. 

        Wholesale better apparel SG&Aexpenses decreased $40.0 million from 2006 to 2007, primarily from a $26.9million reduction in employee salary and benefit costs resulting from headcountreductions and a $19.1 million decrease in advertising costs, partially offsetby a $6.8 million increase in administrative support costs. SG&A expenses for2006 included $4.3 million related to the closing of the Secaucus warehouse. 

        Wholesale jeanswear SG&A expensesincreased $18.6 million, primarily from $10.3 million of costs related to theexit of certain brands and the closing of warehouse facilities, a $5.3 millionincrease in administrative support costs and a $1.1 million increase inadvertising costs. SG&A expenses in 2006 included $2.3 million related to theclosing of our Mexican production facilities. 

        Wholesale footwear and accessoriesSG&A expenses decreased $6.9 million. The decrease was primarily due to $10.0million recorded in 2006 related to the termination of a former executiveofficer and the settlement of litigation concerning a license agreement,partially offset by a $4.9 million increase in administrative support costs in2007. 

        Retail SG&A expenses increased$22.5 million, primarily from a $24.4 million increase in store occupancy andemployee costs (which includes $18.0 million resulting from the opening of newretail stores), a $5.8 million increase in administrative support costs, $5.6million additional depreciation from store remodels and $4.0 million ofadditional consulting, legal settlement and design costs in 2007. Theseincreases were partially offset by $19.7 million of cost savings resulting fromthe shutdown of our Stein Mart locations in January 2007. SG&A expenses in 2006included $2.6 million related to the termination of a former executive officer.

        SG&A expenses for the licensing,other and eliminations segment increased $9.9 million, primarily from amountsrelated to the termination of two former executive officers in 2007. 

        ***Impairment Losses and OtherItems.*** As a result of our annual goodwill impairment analyses, werecorded goodwill impairments of $78.0 and $441.2 million in 2007 and 2006,respectively, as a result of decreases in projected revenues and profitabilityfor certain moderate apparel brands. As a result of our annual trademarkimpairment analyses, we recorded trademark impairment charges of $7.5 and $50.2million in 2007 and 2006, respectively, as a result of decreases in projectedrevenues for certain moderate apparel brands. We also recorded trademarkimpairment charges of $80.5 million in 2007 as a result of our decision todiscontinue or significantly reduce the scale of certain brands. For moreinformation, see "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in Notes to ConsolidatedFinancial Statements. 

        During 2007, we sold our interestin our Australian joint venture for $20.7 million, which resulted in a gain of$8.2 million (see "Joint Ventures" in Notes to Consolidated FinancialStatements). During 2006, we recorded a $17.4 million gain (net of associatedcosts) upon the sale of stock in Rubicon Retail Limited (see "Gain on Sale ofStock in Rubicon Retail Limited" in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

        ***Operating Loss.***Theresulting operating loss from continuing operations for 2007 was $27.0 millioncompared with $220.0 million for 2006, due to the factors described above andthe loss of the sale of the *Polo Jeans Company* business in 2006. 

        ***Net Interest Expense.***Net interest expense was $47.8 million in 2007 compared with $47.0 million in2006. 

- 42 -

        ***Income Taxes.*** Theeffective income tax rate benefit on continuing operations was 178.4% and 28.5%for 2007 and 2006, respectively. Excluding the effects of the reversal of thedeferred tax valuation allowance related to the sale of Barneys ($107.7 million)and the goodwill impairment, the effective tax rate on continuing operations was17.0% for 2007. Without the effects of the *Polo Jeans Company* sale, the goodwillimpairment, the litigation settlement and the gain on the sale of stock inRubicon Retail Limited, the effective tax rate on continuing operations was34.0% for 2006. The change from 2006 to 2007 was primarily driven by a greaterimpact of the foreign income tax differential relative to pre-tax income in 2007than in 2006. 

        ***Discontinued Operations.***Income from discontinued operations for 2007 includes a $254.2 million after-taxgain on the sale of Barneys and $11.0 million of net income from the operationof Barneys prior to the sale (see "Discontinued Operations" in Notes toConsolidated Financial Statements), compared to $29.0 million of net income fromthe operation of Barneys in 2006. The decrease in net income from the operationof Barneys is primarily due to the results of Barneys being included in thecurrent year only through September 5, 2007. 

        ***Net Income (Loss) andEarnings (Loss) Per Share.*** Net income was $311.1 million in 2007compared with a net loss of $144.1 million in 2006. Diluted earnings per sharefor 2007 was $3.07 compared with a loss per share of $(1.30) for 2006, on 8.4%fewer shares outstanding. 

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

        Our principal capital requirementshave been for working capital needs, capital expenditures, dividend payments,acquisition funding and repurchases of our common stock on the open market. Wehave historically relied on internally generated funds, trade credit, bankborrowings and the issuance of notes to finance our operations and expansion. Asof December 31, 2008, total cash and cash equivalents were $338.3 million, anincrease of $35.5 million from the $302.8 million reported as of December 31,2007. 

        We currently fund our operationsprimarily through cash generated by operating activities, and rely on ourrevolving credit facility for the issuance of trade letters of credit for thepurchases of inventory and for cash borrowings as needed. Our $250.0 million4.250% Senior Notes mature in November 2009. We currently intend to repay thesenotes from available cash upon their maturity. We do not currently believe thatwe will need to borrow cash under our revolving credit facility. 

        Cash flows from operatingactivities of continuing operations provided $175.5 million, $119.5 million and$386.2 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. 

        Net cash provided by operatingactivities increased $56.0 million from 2007 to 2008, primarily from the taxeffects of the Barneys sale in 2007 and federal and state tax refunds receivedduring 2008, offset by lower income from continuing operations in 2008 beforenon-cash impairment charges. The primary changes in components of workingcapital were to accounts receivable and accounts payable. The change in accountsreceivable was primarily the result of an increase in receivables from ourinternational and jeanswear businesses due to increased sales and the timing ofshipments during 2008. The change in accounts payable was primarily the resultof the timing of inventory payments and the effects of the sale of the *PoloJeans Company* business in 2007. 

        The $266.7 million decrease in netcash provided by operating activities from 2006 to 2007 was primarily the resultof changes in working capital. Income taxes payable decreased primarily as aresult of the tax effects of the Barneys sale. Accounts receivable experienced asmaller decrease in 2007 than in 2006 and accounts payable decreased in 2007compared to an increase in 2006 primarily due to the effects from the sale ofthe *Polo Jeans Company* business and the timing of inventory payments. 

        Cash flows from investingactivities of continuing operations used $84.4 million and provided $758.0million and $258.8 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net cash usedin investing activities in 2008 funded capital expenditures, largely in ourretail segment, and the acquisition of an interest in GRI. In 2007 and 2006, netcash provided by investing activities was primarily due to net cash receivedfrom the sale of Barneys in 2007 and net cash received from the sale of the *Polo Jeans Company* business in 2006.

Capital expenditures, which amounted to $71.2 million in 2008, are expectedto be approximately $40 - $45 million for 2009, primarily for retail storeremodeling and computer systems. Although many of the anticipated expendituresfor 2009 are discretionary, we believe they are necessary to maintain consistentoperating levels. We expect to fund the expenditures from cash generated byoperations.

        Cash flows from financingactivities of continuing operations used $51.4 million in 2008, primarily forthe payment of dividends to our common shareholders. 

        Cash flows from financingactivities of continuing operations used $666.4 million in 2007, primarily torepurchase our common stock and repay $100.0 million of net borrowings under ourSenior Credit Facilities. 

        Cash flows from financingactivities of continuing operations used $608.6 million in 2006, primarily toredeem at maturity our outstanding 7.875% Senior Notes due 2005 at par on June15, 2006 (for a total payment of $225.0 million), repurchase our common stockand pay dividends to our common shareholders and repay $29.5 million of netborrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities. 

        We repurchased no common stockduring 2008 and repurchased $496.9 million and $306.2 million of our commonstock during 2007 and 2006, respectively. As of December 31, 2008, $304.1million of Board authorized repurchases was still available. We may makeadditional share repurchases in the future depending on, among other things,market conditions and our financial condition. On June 10, 2008, we received afinal delivery of 3.2 million shares upon the conclusion of the ASR program. Nocash was required to complete the final delivery of shares. We also receivedapproximately $1.0 million from Goldman as the final settlement of the ASRprogram, which has been recorded as a reduction of the cost of the sharesacquired under the ASR. The combined average price for the shares deliveredunder the ASR was $19.00 per share. 

        Our Board of Directors hasauthorized our common stock repurchases as a tax-effective means to enhanceshareholder value and distribute cash to shareholders and, to a lesser extent,to offset the impact of dilution resulting from the issuance of employee stockoptions and shares of restricted stock. In authorizing future share repurchaseprograms, our Board of Directors gives careful consideration to both ourprojected cash flows and our existing capital resources. 

        Proceeds from the issuance ofcommon stock to our employees exercising stock options amounted to $0.1 million,$11.1 million and $32.4 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. 

        Prior to June 6, 2008, we hadrevolving credit agreements with several lending institutions to borrow anaggregate principal amount of up to $1.75 billion. These agreements, whichconsisted of a $1.0 billion five-year revolving credit facility expiring in June2009 and a $750.0 million five-year revolving credit facility expiring in May2010, could be used for letters of credit or cash borrowings. On June 6, 2008,we amended these facilities. The terms and conditions of the credit facilitiesremained substantially unchanged, except for modification of the pricingprovisions and certain covenants and reduction of the aggregate commitment underthe $1.0 billion facility to $500.0 million. On December 24, 2008, we announcedthat, effective as of December 31, 2008, we terminated our $500 millionrevolving credit facility that was scheduled to expire on June 15, 2009, andthat, effective as of January 5, 2009, we further amended our $750 millionrevolving credit facility which expires on May 16, 2010 to reduce the aggregatecommitment to $600 million, increase the fees and interest rates, modify certaincovenants and provide collateral for borrowings. Otherwise, the terms andconditions of the credit facility expiring on May 16, 2010 remain substantiallyunchanged. 

        Up to $450 million of the amendedfacility expiring on May 16, 2010 is available for the issuance of trade andstandby letters of credit, and cash borrowings are limited to the lesser of (a)$400 million less amounts owed to the lending institutions or theiradministrative agent under hedging agreements, treasury management servicesagreements, open account agreements, letters of credit (other than those issuedunder the facility) and other funded loans (the "Additional Secured Agreements")and (b) the maximum amount of obligations permitted to be secured pursuant tothe Indenture dated November 22, 2004 (relating to our outstanding Senior Notes)without any requirement to equally and ratably secure 

- 44 -

such Senior Notes. Borrowings under the amended revolving credit facility maybe used to refinance existing indebtedness, for working capital needs and forother general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, subject to certainlimitations. Borrowings under the amended revolving credit facility andobligations under the Additional Secured Agreements are secured by inventory andreceivables of Jones USA and certain of its affiliates, as well as the proceedsof such inventory and receivables, but only to the extent that the grant of thatsecurity would not require the Senior Notes issued under the Indenture to beequally and ratably secured by that collateral. 

        The amended revolving creditagreement requires us to satisfy a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio, a maximumCovenant Debt to EBITDA Ratio and a minimum Asset Coverage Ratio (each asdefined in the amended facility expiring on May 16, 2010), and containscovenants limiting our ability to (1) incur debt and guaranty obligations, (2)incur liens, (3) make loans, advances, investments and acquisitions, (4) mergeor liquidate, (5) sell or transfer assets, (6) pay dividends, repurchase shares,or make distributions to stockholders, (7) engage in transactions withaffiliates and (8) make capital expenditures above certain dollar thresholds. AtDecember 31, 2008, we are in compliance with all covenants under the facilityexpiring on May 16, 2010 existing at that time and with all covenants in theamended agreement that took effect on January 5, 2009. We do not anticipate anybreach of the covenants in the foreseeable future. However, any such breach,should it occur, would have a material adverse impact to our liquidity due bothto restrictions on our ability to issue letters of credit under the revolvingcredit facility for inventory purchases and to the cross-default provisionsrelating to our outstanding Senior Notes. 

        At December 31, 2008, $175.8million of letters of credit and no cash borrowings were outstanding under therevolving credit facility expiring on May 16, 2010. The estimated maximumamount of cash borrowings that would be available to us on that date under theamended agreement that took effect on January 5, 2009 was $400.0million. We believe this unused availability will be sufficient for our cashborrowing needs for the foreseeable future. 

        At December 31, 2008, we also haduncommitted unsecured lines of credit available for up to $51.5 million ofletters of credit, under which an aggregate of $45.8 million was outstanding. OnJanuary 5, 2009, $50.0 million of these lines of credit were terminated and theoutstanding letters of credit were transferred to our amended revolving creditfacility. At December 31, 2008, we also had a C$10.0 million unsecured line ofcredit in Canada, under which C$0.2 million of letters of credit wereoutstanding. 

        On August 5, 2008, Standard &Poor's removed our corporate credit and senior unsecured debt ratings fromcredit watch and lowered the ratings to BB from BB+. It further lowered theratings to BB- on October 29, 2008 while maintaining its previously-assignednegative outlook. On October 20, 2008, Moody's lowered our corporate family andprobability of default ratings to Ba2 from Ba1 and assigned a ratings outlook ofstable. As a result of the amendments to our revolving credit facility expiringon May 16, 2010, Standard & Poor's further downgraded our senior unsecured debtratings from BB- to B+ on January 6, 2009 and Moody's further downgraded oursenior unsecured debt ratings from Ba2 to Ba3 on January 8, 2009. Under theamended revolving credit facility, our fees and interest rates are no longeraffected by our credit rating, so further changes to our ratings will notincrease our borrowing costs. However, any future downgrades could affect ourability to obtain additional funding sources. 

        We recorded net pension andpostretirement losses of $9.3 million in 2008 to other comprehensive incomeresulting primarily from the downturn in the financial markets, which generatedlower than expected returns on our plan assets. We recorded net pension andpostretirement liability gains of $4.5 million to other comprehensive income in2007 resulting primarily from the amortization of actuarial gains. We recordednet pension and postretirement losses of $1.8 million in 2006 to othercomprehensive income resulting primarily from the amortization of actuariallosses and lower than expected returns on our plan assets. Our pension andpostretirement plans are currently underfunded by a total of $18.1 million. Asthe benefits under our defined benefit pension plans are frozen with respect toservice credits, the effects on future pension expense are not anticipated to bematerial to our results of operations or to our liquidity.

        On January 22, 2009, our Board ofDirectors announced that the quarterly dividend would be reduced from $0.14 pershare to $0.05 per share beginning in 2009. This reduction is intended toconserve cash in the current increasingly uncertain economic climate and returnour dividend yield to more appropriate levels. On February 11, 2009, weannounced that the Board of Directors had declared a quarterly cash dividend of$0.05 per share to all common stockholders of record as of February 27, 2009 forpayment on March 13, 2009.

*Economic Outlook*        The current economic environment hasresulted in lower consumer confidence and lower retail sales. This trend maylead to further reduced consumer spending which could affect our net sales andour future profitability. Additionally, rising costs combined with reducedconsumer spending may reduce our gross profit margins and could affect ourcompliance with our debt covenants. A violation of our covenants could restrictor prohibit access to our credit facilities. Should restrictions on our creditfacilities and these factors occur, they could have a material adverse effect onour business. 

        Goody's, Mervyn's and Boscov'sfiled voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the UnitedStates Bankruptcy Code on June 9, 2008, July 29, 2008 and August 4, 2008,respectively. On January 13, 2009, Goody's filed a second voluntary petition forreorganization under Chapter 11 and announced it would liquidate. On January 14,2009, Gottschalk's filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. As a result, we incrementally increasedour provision for doubtful accounts by $9.3 million during 2008. Due to thecurrent and expected future economic conditions in the United States, we mayexperience increased risk related to the collectibility of our accountsreceivable, and we may increase our provision for doubtful accounts in thefuture should other of our wholesale customers experience significant financialdifficulties. If such conditions lead to defaults that are individually orcumulatively significant, we could experience a material adverse impact to ourfinancial condition, results of operations and/or liquidity. 

        The economic turmoil that hasarisen in the credit markets and the negative effects of the economicenvironment on our business may negatively impact our ability to borrow funds inthe future. Our $600.0 million amended senior credit facility expires in May2010. Under current conditions in the credit markets, there is no assurance thatwe will be able to replace or refinance this source of funds. However, webelieve that available cash and cash equivalents, funds generated by operations,the $600.0 million amended senior credit facility and our other lines of creditwill provide the financial resources sufficient to meet our foreseeable workingcapital, dividend, capital expenditure and stock repurchase requirements andfund our contractual obligations and our contingent liabilities and commitments.Although there can be no assurance because of these challenging times forfinancial institutions, we believe that the participating banks will be willingand able to loan funds to us in accordance with their legal obligations underthe $600.0 million amended senior credit facility. 

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

        We do not have any off-balancesheet arrangements within the meaning of SEC Regulation S-K Item 303(a)(4). 

**Contractual Obligations and Contingent Liabilities and Commitments**

**New Accounting Standards**

        In December 2007, the FASB issuedSFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141(R)"), whichrequires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed,and any noncontrolling interest of an acquiree at the acquisition date, measuredat their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141(R)applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date ison or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on orafter December 15, 2008. Earlier application is prohibited. The adoption of SFASNo. 141(R) is not expected to have a material impact on our results ofoperations or our financial position. 

        In December 2007, the FASB issuedSFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements,"which requires (1) ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties otherthan the parent to be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in theconsolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate fromthe parent's equity; (2) the amount of consolidated net income attributable tothe parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified andpresented on the face of the consolidated statement of income; and (3) changesin a parent's ownership interest while the parent retains its controllingfinancial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently as equitytransactions. SFAS No. 160 applies prospectively to business combinations forwhich the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annualreporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier application isprohibited. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 is not expected to have a materialimpact on our results of operations or our financial position. 

        In March 2008, the FASB issuedSFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133," which changes the disclosurerequirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities arerequired to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity usesderivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged itemsare accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c)how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial

position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effectivefor financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginningafter November 15, 2008. 

        In June 2008, the FASB issued FASBStaff Position No. EITF 03-6-1, "Determining Whether Instruments Granted inShare-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities," which classifiesunvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights todividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participatingsecurities and requires them to be included in the computation of earnings pershare pursuant to the two-class method described in SFAS No. 128, "Earnings perShare." This Staff Position is effective for financial statements issued forfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within thoseyears. All prior-period earnings per share data presented are to be adjustedretrospectively (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings,and selected financial data). The adoption of this Staff Position will requireus to allocate a portion of net income to these participating securities. Underthe guidelines of this Staff Position, our basic (loss) earnings per share for2006, 2007 and 2008 would be $(1.29), $3.07 and $(9.02), respectively, and ourdiluted (loss) earnings per share for 2006, 2007 and 2008 would be $(1.29),$3.03 and $(9.02), respectively.

**ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUTMARKET RISK

Market Risk Sensitive Instruments**
        We are exposed to the impact ofinterest rate changes, foreign currency fluctuations, and changes in the marketvalue of our fixed rate long-term debt. We manage this exposure through regularoperating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the useof derivative financial instruments. Our policy allows the use of derivativefinancial instruments for identifiable market risk exposures, including interestrate and foreign currency fluctuations. We do not enter into derivativefinancial contracts for trading or other speculative purposes. The followingquantitative disclosures were derived using quoted market prices, yields andtheoretical pricing models obtained through independent pricing sources for thesame or similar types of financial instruments, taking into consideration theunderlying terms, such as the coupon rate, term to maturity and imbedded calloptions. Certain items such as lease contracts, insurance contracts, andobligations for pension and other post-retirement benefits were not included inthe analysis.

        Our primary interest rateexposures relate to the fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt and interestexpense related to our revolving credit facility. 

        At December 31, 2008, the fairvalue of our fixed rate debt was $462.2 million. On that date, the potentialdecrease in fair value of our fixed rate long-term debt instruments resultingfrom a hypothetical 10% adverse change in interest rates was approximately $42.0million. 

        Our primary interest rateexposures on variable rate credit facilities are with respect to United Statesand Canadian short-term rates. Cash borrowings under these facilities bearinterest at rates that vary with changes in prevailing market rates. At December31, 2008, we had approximately $760.0 million in variable rate creditfacilities, under which no cash borrowings were outstanding. This amount wasreduced by $150.0 million on January 5, 2009. 

*Foreign Currency Exchange Rates*

        We are exposed to market riskrelated to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our products havehistorically been purchased from foreign manufacturers in pre-set United Statesdollar prices. To date, we generally have not been materially adversely affectedby fluctuations in exchange rates. We also have assets and liabilitiesdenominated in certain foreign currencies. 

        At December 31, 2008, we hadoutstanding foreign exchange contracts to exchange Canadian Dollars for a totalnotional value of US $10.5 million at a weighted-average exchange rate of 1.2026maturing through May 2009. The fair value of these contracts at December 31,2008 was a $0.1 million unrealized gain. We believe that these financialinstruments should not subject us to undue risk due to foreign exchangemovements because gains and losses on these contracts should offset losses andgains on the assets, liabilities, and transactions being hedged. We are exposedto credit-related losses if the counterparty to a financial instrument fails toperform its obligation. However, we do not expect the counterparties, whichpresently have high credit ratings, to fail to meet their obligations.

To the Stockholders of Jones Apparel Group, Inc. 

        The management of Jones ApparelGroup, Inc. is responsible for the preparation, integrity, objectivity and fairpresentation of the financial statements and other financial informationpresented in this report. The financial statements have been prepared inconformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica and reflect the effects of certain judgments and estimates made bymanagement. 

        In order to ensure that ourinternal control over financial reporting is effective, management regularlyassesses such controls and did so most recently for our financial reporting asof December 31, 2008. This assessment was based on criteria for effectiveinternal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control -Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of theTreadway Commission, referred to as COSO. Our assessment included thedocumentation and understanding of our internal control over financialreporting. We have evaluated the design effectiveness and tested the operatingeffectiveness of internal controls to form our conclusion. 

        Our internal control overfinancial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assuranceregarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation offinancial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally acceptedaccounting principles.

        Because of its inherentlimitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detectmisstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to futureperiods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because ofchanges in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies orprocedures may deteriorate. 

        Based on this assessment, theundersigned officers concluded that our internal controls and procedures areeffective in timely alerting them to material information required to beincluded in our periodic SEC filings and that information required to bedisclosed by us in these periodic filings is recorded, processed, summarized andreported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and thatour internal controls are effective to provide reasonable assurance that ourfinancial statements are fairly presented in conformity with generally acceptedaccounting principles.

Jones Apparel Group, Inc.Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

**SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
*Basis of Presentation*        The consolidated financial statementsinclude the accounts of Jones Apparel Group, Inc. and our wholly-ownedsubsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have beeneliminated. The results of operations of acquired companies are included in ouroperating results from the respective dates of acquisition. 

        We design, contract for themanufacture of and market a broad range of women's collection sportswear, suitsand dresses, casual sportswear and jeanswear for women and children, and women'sfootwear and accessories. We sell our products through a broad array ofdistribution channels, including better specialty and department stores and massmerchandisers, primarily in the United States and Canada. We also operate ourown network of retail and factory outlet stores, as well as several e-commerceweb sites. In addition, we license the use of several of our brand names toselect manufacturers and distributors of women's and men's apparel andaccessories worldwide. 

        The preparation of financialstatements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in theUnited States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affectthe reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingentassets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reportedamounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual resultscould differ from these estimates. 

        In accordance with the provisionsof SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-LivedAssets," the results of operations of Barneys for all periods have been reportedas discontinued operations. We classify as discontinued operations for allperiods presented any component of our business that we believe is probable ofbeing sold or has been sold that has operations and cash flows that are clearlydistinguishable operationally and for financial reporting purposes. For thosecomponents, we have no significant continuing involvement after disposal andtheir operations and cash flows are eliminated from our ongoing operations.Sales of significant components of our business not classified as discontinuedoperations are reported as a component of income from continuing operations. 

*Credit Risk*        Financial instruments whichpotentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist principally ofcash investments and accounts receivable. We place our cash and cash equivalentsin investment-grade, highly-liquid corporate money market funds that participatein the U.S. Treasury's Temporary Guarantee Program. The Program protects ourmoney market investment balances as of September 19, 2008 through April 30,2009. After September 19, 2008, we placed our cash and cash equivalents ininvestment-grade, highly-liquid U.S. government agency corporate money marketaccounts. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financialcondition and, generally, require no collateral from our customers. Theallowance for non-collection of accounts receivable is based upon the expectedcollectibility of all accounts receivable. 

*Derivative Financial Instruments*        Our primary objectives for holdingderivative financial instruments are to manage foreign currency and interestrate risks. We do not use financial instruments for trading or other speculativepurposes. We have historically used derivative financial instruments to hedgeboth the fair value of recognized assets or liabilities (a "fair value" hedge)and the variability of anticipated cash flows of a forecasted transaction (a "cash flow" hedge). Our strategies related to derivative financial instrumentshave been: 
- the use of foreign currency forward contracts to hedge a portion of	anticipated future short-term inventory purchases to offset the effects of	changes in foreign currency exchange rates (primarily between the U.S.	Dollar and the Canadian Dollar) and

- 57 -
- the use of interest rate swaps to effectively convert a portion of our	outstanding fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt to take advantage of lower	interest rates. 

        The derivatives we use in our riskmanagement strategies are highly effective hedges because all the critical termsof the derivative instruments match those of the hedged item. On the date thederivative contract is entered into, we designate the derivative as either afair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. Changes in derivative fair values thatare designated as fair value hedges are recognized in earnings as offsets to thechanges in fair value of the related hedged assets and liabilities. Changes inderivative fair values that are designated as cash flow hedges are deferred andrecorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income until theassociated hedged transactions impact the income statement, at which time thedeferred gains and losses are reclassified to either cost of sales for inventorypurchases or to SG&A expenses for all other items. Any ineffective portion of ahedging derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in costof sales. Differentials to be paid or received under interest rate swapcontracts are recognized in income over the life of the contracts as adjustmentsto interest expense. Gains or losses generated from the early termination ofinterest rate swap contracts and treasury locks are amortized to earnings overthe remaining terms of the contracts as adjustments to interest expense. Thefair values of the derivatives, which are based on observable inputs such asyield curves or foreign exchange spot rates, are reported as other currentassets or accrued expenses and other current liabilities, as appropriate. 

*Accounts Receivable*        Accounts receivable are reported atamounts we expect to be collected, net of trade discounts and deductions forco-op advertising normally taken by our customers, allowances we provide to ourretail customers to effectively flow goods through the retail channels, anallowance for non-collection due to the financial position of our customers andcredit card accounts, and an allowance for estimated sales returns. 

*Inventories and Cost of Sales       *Inventories are valued at thelower of cost or market. Inventory values are determined using the FIFO (firstin, first out) and weighted average cost methods. We reduce the carrying cost ofinventories for obsolete or slow moving items as necessary to properly reflectinventory value. The cost elements included in inventory consist of all directcosts of merchandise (net of purchase discounts and vendor allowances),allocated overhead (primarily design and indirect production costs), inboundfreight and merchandise acquisition costs such as commissions and import fees.

        Cost of sales includes theinventory cost elements listed above as well as warehouse outbound freight,internally transferred merchandise freight and realized gains or losses onforeign currency forward contracts associated with inventory purchases. Our costof sales may not be comparable to those of other entities, since some entitiesinclude all of the costs associated with their distribution functions in cost ofsales while we include these costs in selling, general and administrativeexpenses. 

*Property, Plant, Equipment and Depreciation and Amortization       *Property, plant and equipment arerecorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed by thestraight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leaseholdimprovements recorded at the inception of a lease are amortized using thestraight-line method over the life of the lease or the useful life of theimprovement, whichever is shorter; for improvements made during the lease term,the amortization period is the shorter of the useful life or the remaining leaseterm (including any renewal periods that are deemed to be reasonably assured).Property under capital leases is amortized over the lives of the respectiveleases or the estimated useful lives of the assets, whichever is shorter. 

*Operating Leases       *Total rent payments underoperating leases that include scheduled payment increases and rent holidays areamortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rent expense onour buildings and retail stores is classified as an SG&A expense and, forcertain stores, includes contingent rents that are based on a percentage ofretail sales over stated levels. Landlord allowances are amortized by thestraight-line method over the term of the lease as a reduction of rent expense.

- 58 -

*Goodwill and Other Intangibles*        Goodwill represents the excess ofpurchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in businesscombinations accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. We test atleast annually our goodwill and other intangibles without determinable lives(primarily tradenames and trademarks) for impairment through the use ofdiscounted cash flow models. Other intangibles with determinable lives,including license agreements, are amortized on a straight-line basis over theestimated useful lives of the assets (currently ranging from three to 19 years).

*Foreign Currency Translation*        The financial statements of foreignsubsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52,"Foreign Currency Translation." Where the functional currency of a foreignsubsidiary is its local currency, balance sheet accounts are translated at thecurrent exchange rate and income statement items are translated at the averageexchange rate for the period. Gains and losses resulting from translation areaccumulated in a separate component of stockholders' equity. Where the localcurrency of a foreign subsidiary is not its functional currency, financialstatements are translated at either current or historical exchange rates, asappropriate. These adjustments, along with gains and losses on transactionsdenominated and settled in a foreign currency, are reflected in the consolidatedstatements of operations. Net foreign currency losses reflected in results fromcontinuing operations were $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $0.1 million in 2008,2007 and 2006, respectively. 

*Defined Benefit Plans*        Our funding policy is to contributeat least the minimum amount to meet the funding ratio requirements of thePension Protection Act, which began to phase in during 2008. 

*Treasury Stock*        Treasury stock is recorded atacquisition cost. Gains and losses on disposition are recorded as increases ordecreases to additional paid-in capital with losses in excess of previouslyrecorded gains charged directly to retained earnings. 

*Revenue Recognition*        Wholesale apparel and footwear andaccessories sales are recognized either when products are shipped or, in certainsituations, upon acceptance by the customer. Retail sales are recorded at thetime of register receipt. Allowances for estimated returns are provided whensales are recorded primarily by reducing revenues for the total revenues relatedto estimated returns, with an offsetting reduction to cost of sales for the costof the estimated returns. Sales taxes collected from retail customers areexcluded from reported revenues. Licensing income is recognized based on thehigher of contractual minimums or sales of licensed products reported by ourlicensees. 

*Shipping and Handling Costs*        Shipping and handling costs billed tocustomers are recorded as revenue. Freight costs associated with shipping goodsto customers are recorded as a cost of sales. 

*Advertising Expense*        We record national advertisingcampaign costs as an expense when the advertising takes place and we expenseadvertising production costs as incurred, net of reimbursements for cooperativeadvertising. Advertising costs associated with our cooperative advertisingprograms are accrued as the related revenues are recognized. Net advertisingexpense reflected in results from continuing operations was $54.7 million, $54.2million and $71.0 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively, net ofco-operative advertising reimbursements of $12.9 million, $12.8 million and$13.1 million, respectively. 

*Income Taxes*        We use the asset and liability methodof accounting for income taxes. Current tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated Federal, foreign, state and local income taxespayable or refundable on the tax returns for the current year. Deferred taxassets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequencesof temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assetsand liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which thedifferences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax provisions are based onthe changes to the respective assets and

- 59 -

liabilities from period to period. Valuation allowances are recorded toreduce deferred tax assets when uncertainty regarding their realizabilityexists. 

*Earnings per Share*        Basic earnings per share includes nodilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders bythe weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutedearnings per share reflect, in periods in which they have a dilutive effect, theeffect of unvested restricted stock and common shares issuable upon exercise ofstock options. The difference between reported basic and dilutedweighted-average common shares results from the assumption that all dilutivestock options outstanding were exercised and all convertible bonds have beenconverted into common stock. 

        The following shares of unvestedrestricted stock and options to purchase shares of common stock were outstandingduring a portion of 2007 but were not included in the computation of dilutedearnings per share because the unamortized deferred compensation related to theunvested restricted shares or the exercise prices of the options were greaterthan the average market price of the common shares and, therefore, would beantidilutive. For 2008 and 2006, none of the unvested restricted stock oroptions outstanding were included in the computation of diluted earnings pershare due to the net loss for the year.
200820072006Number of	unvested restricted shares (in millions)  -0.2 -Number of options (in millions) - 8.3 -Weighted average exercise price - $32.65 -
*Restricted Stock*        Compensation cost for restrictedstock is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of our stockat the date the common stock is issued over the amount the employee must pay toacquire the stock (which is generally zero). The compensation cost, net ofprojected forfeitures, is recognized over the period between the issue date andthe date any restrictions lapse. 

*Long-Lived Assets*        We review certain long-lived assetsfor impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that thecarrying amount may not be recoverable. In that regard, we assess therecoverability of such assets based upon estimated non-discounted cash flowforecasts. If an asset impairment is identified, the asset is written down tofair value based on discounted cash flow or other fair value measures. 

*Cash Equivalents*        We consider all highly liquidshort-term investments to be cash equivalents. 

*Presentation of Prior Year Data*        Certain reclassifications have beenmade to conform prior year data with the current presentation. 

*New Accounting Standards*        In December 2007, the FASB issuedSFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141(R)"), whichrequires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed,and any noncontrolling interest of an acquiree at the acquisition date, measuredat their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141(R)applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date ison or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on orafter December 15, 2008. Earlier application is prohibited. The adoption of SFASNo. 141(R) is not expected to have a material impact on our results ofoperations or our financial position. 

        In December 2007, the FASB issuedSFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements,"which requires (1) ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties otherthan the parent to be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in theconsolidated statement of financial 

- 60 -

position within equity, but separate from the parent's equity; (2) the amountof consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrollinginterest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidatedstatement of income; and (3) changes in a parent's ownership interest while theparent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accountedfor consistently as equity transactions. SFAS No. 160 applies prospectively tobusiness combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after thebeginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December15, 2008. Earlier application is prohibited. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 is notexpected to have a material impact on our results of operations or our financialposition. 

        In March 2008, the FASB issuedSFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133," which changes the disclosurerequirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities arerequired to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity usesderivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged itemsare accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c)how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financialposition, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective forfinancial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning afterNovember 15, 2008. 

        In June 2008, the FASB issued FASBStaff Position No. EITF 03-6-1, "Determining Whether Instruments Granted inShare-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities," which classifiesunvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights todividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) as participatingsecurities and requires them to be included in the computation of earnings pershare pursuant to the two-class method described in SFAS No. 128, "Earnings perShare." This Staff Position is effective for financial statements issued forfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within thoseyears. All prior-period earnings per share data presented are to be adjustedretrospectively (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings,and selected financial data). The adoption of this Staff Position will requireus to allocate a portion of net income to these participating securities. Underthe guidelines of this Staff Position, our basic (loss) earnings per share for2006, 2007 and 2008 would be $(1.29), $3.07 and $(9.02), respectively, and ourdiluted  (loss) earnings per share for 2006, 2007 and 2008 would be $(1.29),$3.03 and $(9.02), respectively.

**ACCRUED RESTRUCTURING COSTS**
*Denim Restructuring*        In late 2003, we began to evaluate	the need to broaden global sourcing capabilities to respond to the	competitive pricing and global sourcing capabilities of our denim	competitors, as the favorable production costs from non-duty/non-quota	countries and the breadth of fabric options from Asia began to outweigh the	benefits of Mexico's quick turn and superior laundry capabilities. On July	11, 2005, we announced that we had completed a comprehensive review of our	denim manufacturing operations located in Mexico. The primary action plan	arising from this review resulted in the closing of the laundry, assembly	and distribution operations located in San Luis, Mexico. All manufacturing	was consolidated into existing operations in Durango and Torreon, Mexico. A	total of 3,170 employees were terminated as a result of the closure. 

        In connection	with the denim restructuring, we recorded $11.4 million of net pre-tax costs	(of which $12.1 million was recorded in 2005 and $0.7 million was reversed	in 2006), which includes $5.1 million of one-time termination benefits, $3.1	million of losses on the sale of property, plant and equipment, $2.3 million	of contract termination costs and $0.9 million of legal and other associated	costs. Of these amounts, $10.1 million were reported as cost of sales and	$1.3 million were reported as a selling, general and administrative expense	in the wholesale jeanswear segment. The restructuring was substantially	completed during the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2006. 

        The details of	the denim restructuring accruals are as follows:

*Secaucus Restructuring*        On May 15, 2006, we announced theclosing of our Secaucus, New Jersey warehouse to reduce excess capacity. Inconnection with the closing, in 2006 we incurred $2.8 million of one-timetermination benefits and associated employee costs for 211 employees and $1.6million for cleanup costs and remaining rent payments. These expenses arereported as selling, general and administrative expenses in the wholesale betterapparel segment. The restructuring was substantially completed in September2006.

*Manufacturing Restructuring*        On September 12, 2006, we announcedthe closing of certain El Paso, Texas and Mexican operations related to thedecision by Polo to discontinue the *Polo Jeans Company* product line (the"manufacturing restructuring"), which we produced for Polo subsequent to thesale of the *Polo Jeans Company* business to Polo in February 2006. Inconnection with the closings, we incurred $6.9 million of one-time terminationbenefits and associated employee costs for 1,838 employees and $1.0 million ofother costs. Of this amount, $2.3 million has been recorded as a selling,general and administrative expense and $5.6 million was recorded as cost ofsales in the wholesale jeanswear segment. At that time, we also determined theestimated fair value of the property, plant and equipment employed in Mexico wasless than its carrying value. As a result, we recorded an impairment loss of$8.6 million, which was reported as cost of sales in the wholesale jeanswearsegment in 2006. The closings were substantially completed by the end of March2007. On May 8, 2008, we sold the Mexican operations for $5.9 million, resultingin a gain of $0.2 million.

**GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS**
        Goodwill represents the excess ofthe purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to net tangible andidentifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for underthe purchase method. Accounting rules require that we test at least annually forpossible goodwill impairment. We perform our test in the fourth fiscal quarterof each year using a discounted cash flow analysis that requires that certainassumptions and estimates be made regarding industry economic factors and futureprofitability. As a result of the 2006 impairment analysis, we determined thatthe goodwill balance existing in our wholesale jeanswear segment was impaired asa result of decreases in projected revenues and profitability with respectcertain moderate apparel brands, as well as changes in business strategy withrespect to our *Norton McNaughton* brand. Accordingly, we recorded animpairment charge of $441.2 million. As a result of the 2007 impairmentanalysis, we determined that the remaining goodwill balance existing in ourwholesale jeanswear segment was impaired as a result of further decreases inprojected revenues and profitability for certain brands. Accordingly, werecorded an impairment charge of $78.0 million. As a result of the 2008impairment analysis, we determined that the goodwill balance existing in ourwholesale footwear and accessories segment was impaired as a result of decreasesin projected revenues and profitability for the segment. Accordingly, werecorded an impairment charge of $813.2 million. 

        The changes in the carrying amountof goodwill for 2007 and 2008, by segment and in total, are as follows(excluding $247.4 million allocated to the sale of Barneys):

As a result of the 2007 impairment analysis, we recordedtrademark impairment charges of $7.5 million as a result of decreases inprojected revenues for certain brands. We also recorded trademark impairmentcharges of $80.5 million in 2007 as a result of our decision to discontinue orsignificantly reduce the scale of certain brands. As a result of the 2008impairment analysis, we recorded trademark impairment charges of $25.2 millionas a result of decreases in projected revenues for certain brands. All trademarkimpairment charges are reported as selling, general and administrative expensesin the licensing, other and eliminations segment.

        Amortization expense reflected inresults from continuing operations for intangible assets subject to amortizationwas $2.8 million, $2.3 million and $3.5 million for 2008, 2007 and 2006,respectively. Amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortizationfor each of the years in the five-year period ending December 31, 2013 isestimated to be $2.3 million in 2009, $2.0 million in 2010, $2.0 million in2011, $1.9 million in 2012 and $1.4 million in 2013. 

        The cash flow models we use toestimate the fair values of our goodwill and trademarks involve severalassumptions. Changes in these assumptions could materially impact our fair valueestimates. Assumptions critical to our fair value estimates are: (i) discountrates used to derive the present value factors used in determining the fairvalue of the reporting units and trademarks; (ii) royalty rates used in ourtrademark valuations; (iii) projected revenue growth rates; and (iv) projectedlong-term growth rates used in the derivation of terminal year values. These andother assumptions are impacted by economic conditions and expectations ofmanagement and will change in the future based on period-specific facts andcircumstances. The following table shows the range of assumptions we used toderive our fair value estimates as part of our annual impairment testing for2008 and 2007.

**FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS**
        As a result of our	global operating and financing activities, we are exposed to changes in	interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates which may adversely	affect results of operations and financial condition. In seeking to minimize	the risks and/or costs associated with such activities, we manage exposure	to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates through our	regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate,	through the use of derivative financial instruments. The instruments	eligible for utilization include forward, option and swap agreements. We do	not use financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. At	December 31, 2008, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts to exchange	Canadian Dollars for a total notional value of US $10.5 million at a	weighted-average exchange rate of 1.2026 maturing through May 2009. 

        We recorded	amortization of net gains resulting from the termination of interest rate	swaps and locks of $2.3 million in 2006 as a reduction of interest expense	in continuing operations. We reclassified net gains (losses) of $1.0	million, $(0.7) million and $(0.5) million from foreign currency exchange	contracts to cost of sales in continuing operations in 2008, 2007 and 2006,	respectively. There has been no material ineffectiveness related to our	foreign currency exchange contracts as the instruments are designed to be	highly effective in offsetting losses and gains transactions being hedged.	An estimated $0.2 million of existing pre-tax net gains from currency	exchange contracts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income as of	December 31, 2008 will be reclassified into cost of sales in the next 12	months. 

        At December 31,	2008 and 2007, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and	accounts payable approximated their carrying values due to the short-term	nature of these instruments. The estimated fair values of other financial	instruments subject to fair value disclosures, determined based on broker	quotes or quoted market prices or rates for the same or similar instruments,	and the related carrying amounts are as follows:

        Financial instruments expose us tocounterparty credit risk for nonperformance and to market risk for changes ininterest and currency rates. We manage exposure to counterparty credit riskthrough specific minimum credit standards, diversification of counterparties andprocedures to monitor the amount of credit exposure. Our financial instrumentcounterparties are substantial investment or commercial banks with significantexperience with such instruments.

**FAIR VALUES**

        We adopted SFAS No. 157, "FairValue Measurements," on January 1, 2008. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as theprice that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability inan orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (anexit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework, creates a fair valuehierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair valuemeasurements, and details the disclosures that are required for items measuredat fair value. FASB Staff Position FAS157-2,"Effective Date of FASB StatementNo. 157," defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets andnonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed atfair value in an entity's financial statements on a recurring basis, to fiscalyears beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscalyears. We currently do not have non-financial assets and non-financialliabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.Under SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and FinancialLiabilities," entities are permitted to choose to measure many financialinstruments and certain other items at fair value. We did not elect the fairvalue measurement option under SFAS No. 159 for any of our financial assets orliabilities. 

        We have several financialinstruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard, includingderivatives, the assets and liabilities of the Jones Apparel Group, Inc.Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Rabbi Trust") and deferred director fees thatare valued based on the quoted market price of our common stock. Our financialassets and liabilities are to be measured using inputs from the three levels ofthe fair value hierarchy, which are as follows: 
- Level 1 - inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for	identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the	measurement date;    
- Level 2 - inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and	liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets	or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted	prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates,	yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or	corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market	corroborated inputs); and    
- Level 3 - unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the	assumptions that market participants would use in pricing assets or	liabilities based on the best information available. 

*Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis*

        In accordance with the fair valuehierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of ourfinancial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair valueon a recurring basis at December 31, 2008.

**CREDIT FACILITIES**

        Prior to June 6, 2008, we hadrevolving credit agreements with several lending institutions to borrow anaggregate principal amount of up to $1.75 billion. These agreements, whichconsisted of a $1.0 billion five-year revolving credit facility expiring in June2009 and a $750.0 million five-year revolving credit facility expiring in May2010, could be used for letters of credit or cash borrowings. On June 6, 2008,we amended these facilities. The terms and conditions of the credit facilitiesremained substantially unchanged, except for modification of the pricingprovisions and certain covenants and reduction of the aggregate commitment underthe $1.0 billion facility to $500.0 million. On December 24, 2008, we announcedthat, effective as of December 31, 2008, we terminated our $500 millionrevolving credit facility that was scheduled to expire on June 15, 2009, andthat, effective as of January 5, 2009, we further amended our $750 millionrevolving credit facility which expires on May 16, 2010 to reduce the aggregatecommitment to $600 million, increase the fees and interest rates, modify certaincovenants and provide collateral for borrowings. Otherwise, the terms andconditions of the credit facility expiring on May 16, 2010 remain substantiallyunchanged. In connection with these amendments, we wrote off $1.1 million ofdeferred financing fees, which is included in interest expense and financingcosts. 

        Up to $450 million of the amendedfacility expiring on May 16, 2010 is available for the issuance of trade andstandby letters of credit, and cash borrowings are limited to the lesser of (a)$400 million less amounts owed to the lending institutions or theiradministrative agent under hedging agreements, treasury management servicesagreements, open account agreements, letters of credit (other than those issuedunder the facility) and other funded loans (the "Additional Secured Agreements")and (b) the maximum amount of obligations permitted to be secured pursuant tothe Indenture dated November 22, 2004 (relating to our outstanding Senior Notes)without any requirement to equally and ratably secure such Senior Notes.Borrowings under the amended revolving credit facility may be used to refinanceexisting indebtedness, for working capital needs and for other general corporatepurposes, including acquisitions. Borrowings under the amended revolving creditfacility and obligations under the Additional Secured Agreements are secured byinventory and receivables of Jones USA and certain of its affiliates, as well asthe proceeds of such inventory and receivables, but only to the extent that thegrant of that security would not require the Senior Notes issued under theIndenture to be equally and ratably secured by that collateral. 

        The amended revolving creditagreement requires us to satisfy a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio, a maximumCovenant Debt to EBITDA Ratio and a minimum Asset Coverage Ratio (each asdefined in the amended facility expiring on May 16, 2010), and containscovenants limiting our ability to (1) incur debt and guaranty obligations, (2)incur liens, (3) make loans, advances, investments and acquisitions, (4) mergeor liquidate, (5) sell or transfer assets, (6) pay dividends, repurchase shares,or make distributions to stockholders, (7) engage in transactions withaffiliates and (8) make capital expenditures. At December 31, 2008, we are incompliance with all covenants under the facility expiring on May 16, 2010existing at that time and with all covenants in the amended agreement that tookeffect on January 5, 2009.

- 70 -

        At December 31, 2008, $175.8million of letters of credit and no cash borrowings were outstanding under therevolving credit facility expiring on May 16, 2010. The estimated maximumamount of cash borrowings that would be available to us on that date under theamended agreement that took effect on January 5, 2009 was $400.0million. We believe this unused availability will be sufficient for our cashborrowing needs for the foreseeable future. 

        At December 31, 2008, we also haduncommitted unsecured lines of credit available for up to $51.5 million ofletters of credit, under which an aggregate of $45.8 million was outstanding. OnJanuary 5, 2009, $50.0 million of these lines of credit were terminated and theoutstanding letters of credit were transferred to our amended revolving creditfacility. At December 31, 2008, we also had a C$10.0 million unsecured line ofcredit in Canada, under which C$0.2 million of letters of credit wereoutstanding. 

        The weighted-average interest ratefor our credit facilities was 4.8% and 5.8% at December 31, 2008 and 2007,respectively. Using the interest rate that took effect upon the effective dateof the amendment to our revolving line of credit on January 5, 2009, ourweighted-average interest rate for our credit facilities at December 31, 2008would have been 6.2%.
**LONG-TERM DEBT**
        Long-term debt consists of thefollowing:

        Long-term debtmaturities during the next five years amount to $250.0 million in 2009. All ofour notes contain certain covenants, including, among others, restrictions onliens, sale-leaseback transactions and additional secured debt, and pay interestsemiannually. The weighted-average interest rate of our long-term debt was 5.2%at both December 31, 2008 and 2007.

**ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME**

**DERIVATIVES**

        SFAS No. 133, "Accounting forDerivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," subsequently amended by SFAS No.138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain HedgingActivities" (as amended, hereinafter referred to as "SFAS 133"), establishesaccounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments. Specifically,SFAS 133 requires us to recognize all derivatives as either assets orliabilities on the balance sheet and to measure those instruments at fair value.Additionally, the fair value adjustments will affect either stockholders' equityor net income, depending on whether the derivative instrument qualifies as ahedge for accounting purposes and, if so, the nature of the hedging activity.

        We use foreign currency forwardcontracts for the specific purpose of hedging the exposure to variability inforecasted cash flows associated primarily with inventory purchases. Theseinstruments are designated as cash flow hedges as the principal terms of theforward exchange contracts are the same as the underlying forecasted foreigncurrency cash flows. Therefore, changes in the fair value of the forwardcontracts should be highly effective in offsetting changes in the expectedforeign currency cash flows, and accordingly, changes in the fair value offorward exchange contracts are recorded in accumulated other comprehensiveincome, net of related tax effects, with the corresponding asset or liabilityrecorded in the balance sheet. Amounts recorded in accumulated othercomprehensive income are reflected in current-period earnings when the hedgedtransaction affects earnings. 

        The following summarizes the U.S.Dollar equivalent amount of our Canadian foreign currency forward exchangecontracts.
 December 31,20082007 (In millions)                    Notional         amount  Fair		value -         asset		  Notional         amount          Fair		value -         (liability)                 Canadian Dollar - U.S. Dollar       $       10.5       $       0.1       
$       		24.4       
$       		(1.8)
        During 2008, 2007 and 2006, wereclassified pre-tax (losses) gains of $(1.0) million, $(0.6) million and $1.8million, respectively, from other comprehensive income to earnings fromcontinuing operations. Since the derivatives we use in our risk managementstrategies are highly effective hedges because all the critical terms of thederivative instruments match those of the hedged item, we record noineffectiveness related to our cash flow hedges. If foreign currency exchangerates do not change from their December 31, 2008 amounts, we estimate that anyreclassifications from other comprehensive income to earnings within the next 12months will not be material. The actual amounts that will be reclassified toearnings over the next 12 months could vary, however, as a result of changes inmarket conditions.
**OBLIGATIONS UNDER CAPITAL LEASES**
        Obligations under capital leases consist of the following:

        We lease an office facility inBristol, Pennsylvania under a 20-year net lease that runs until July 2018 andrequires minimum annual rent payments of approximately $1.1 million. Thebuilding was capitalized at $12.2 million, which approximated the present valueof the minimum lease payments. We also lease various equipment under two- tosix-year leases at an aggregate annualized rental of $3.7 million. The equipmentwas capitalized at $11.3 million, which approximated the present value of theminimum lease payments.

        In 2003, we entered into asale-leaseback agreement for our Virginia warehouse facility. This transactionresulted in a net gain of $7.5 million that has been deferred and is beingamortized over the lease term, which runs until March 2023 and requires minimumannual rent payments of $2.4 million. The building was capitalized at $25.6million, which approximated the present value of the minimum lease payments. 

        The following is a schedule byyear of future minimum lease payments under capital leases, together with thepresent value of the net minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2008:

**COMMON STOCK**

        The Board of Directors hasauthorized several programs to repurchase our common stock from time to time inopen market transactions. We repurchased $496.9 million and $306.2 million ofour common stock during 2007 and 2006, respectively. As of December 31, 2008,$304.1 million of Board authorized repurchases was still available. We may makeadditional share repurchases in the future depending on, among other things,market conditions and our financial condition. 

        On September 6, 2007, we enteredinto an accelerated stock repurchase ("ASR") agreement with Goldman, Sachs & Co.("Goldman") to repurchase $400 million of our outstanding common stock.Purchases under the ASR were subject to collar provisions that establishedminimum and maximum numbers of shares based generally on the volume-weightedaverage price of our common stock during the term of the ASR program. Wereceived an initial delivery of 15.5 million shares on September 11, 2007 and asecond delivery of 2.4 million shares on October 18, 2007. Final settlement ofthe ASR program was scheduled for no later than July 19, 2008 and could occurearlier at the option of Goldman or later under certain circumstances. On June5, 2008, Goldman informed us that it had concluded the ASR. As a result, wereceived a final delivery of 3.2 million shares on June 10, 2008, bringing theaggregate number of shares received under the ASR program to 21.1 millionshares. No cash was required to complete the final delivery of shares. Thecombined average price for the shares delivered under the ASR was $19.00 pershare. 

        Our Board of Directors hasauthorized our common stock repurchases as a tax-effective means to enhanceshareholder value and distribute cash to shareholders and, to a lesser extent,to offset the impact of dilution resulting from the issuance of employee stockoptions and shares of restricted stock. We believe that we have sufficientsources of funds to repurchase shares without significantly impacting ourshort-term or long-term liquidity. In authorizing future share repurchaseprograms, our Board of Directors gives careful consideration to both ourprojected cash flows and our existing capital resources.

**COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

        (a) CONTINGENT LIABILITIES. Wehave been named as a defendant in various actions and proceedings, includingactions brought by certain employees whose employment has been terminatedarising from our ordinary business activities. Although the amount of anyliability that could arise with respect to these actions cannot be accuratelypredicted, in our opinion, any such liability will not have a material adverseeffect on our financial position or results of operations. 

        (b) ROYALTIES. We have anexclusive license to produce and sell women's footwear under the *DockersWomen* trademark in the United States (including its territories andpossessions) and Canada pursuant to an agreement with Levi Strauss & Co. whichexpires on December 31, 2011. The agreement requires us to pay a percentage ofnet sales against guaranteed minimum royalty and advertising payments as setforth in the agreement.

        As of December 31, 2008, we hadfederal, state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $343.8 million,which expire through 2028, foreign tax credit carryforwards of $10.1 million,which expire through 2018, and state tax credit carryforwards of $8.1 million,which expire through 2021. 

        In 2006, we determined that $303.1million of capital loss carryforwards, $12.8 million of state net operating losscarryforwards and $6.2 million of state credit carryforwards may not beutilized; therefore, we established valuation allowances of $107.7 million, $0.7million (net of federal tax benefit) and $4.0 million (net of federal taxbenefit) related to the capital loss, state net operating loss and creditcarryforwards, respectively.

- 76 -

        In 2007, the capital lossvaluation allowance of $107.7 million was reversed as capital gain incomegenerated from the sale of Barneys fully utilized the capital losscarryforwards. The reversal has been recorded in income from continuingoperations as the creation of the valuation allowance was recorded in continuingoperations in 2006 upon the sale of our *Polo Jeans Company* business. The statenet operating loss valuation allowance of $0.7 million was also reversed as the2002 state net operating loss carryforward was unable to be utilized. During thefourth fiscal quarter of 2007, we determined that $1.8 million of state creditcarryforwards expiring through 2021 may not be utilized; therefore, weestablished a valuation allowance of $1.2 million (net of federal tax benefit)related to the state credit carryforward. 

        In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASBStatement No. 109," which establishes that the financial statement effects of atax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return are to be recognizedin the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on thetechnical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. FIN 48also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. 

        We adopted FIN 48 on January 1,2007. We classify interest and penalties, if any, as a part of our provision forincome taxes in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the fourthfiscal quarter of 2007, we determined that $16.7 million (net of federal taxbenefit) included in income taxes payable at December 31, 2006 should bereclassified as uncertain tax position liabilities. The reclassification was dueto changes in our amended return filing positions and ongoing income tax auditsduring the fourth fiscal quarter of 2007. Our total unrecognized tax benefits asof December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were $14.1 million and $16.7 million,respectively (net of federal tax benefit), which included $7.3 million and $7.8million of interest and penalties, respectively (net of federal tax benefit).

        If recognized as of December 31,2008 and December 31, 2007, $14.1 million and $16.7 million, respectively (netof federal tax benefit) of our unrecognized tax benefit would reduce income taxexpense and the effective tax rate. 

        We file a consolidated U.S.federal income tax return as well as separate, unitary and combined income taxreturns in multiple state jurisdictions. In addition, we file income tax returnsin various foreign jurisdictions. 

        The Internal Revenue Service hascompleted examination of our federal returns for taxable years prior to 2006.Our state income tax examinations, with limited exceptions, have been completedfor the periods prior to 2004. The Internal Revenue Service is currentlyexamining our 2006 federal income tax return. We reasonably expect to settle allongoing audits by December 31, 2009.

**GAIN ON SALE OF STOCK IN RUBICON RETAIL LIMITED**

        On October 12, 2006, MosaicFashions hf ("Mosaic") completed its acquisition of United Kingdom retailerRubicon Retail Limited ("Rubicon"). As a result of our sale of Nine West'sUnited Kingdom operations in January 2001, we obtained warrants to purchasestock in Rubicon. These warrants were exercisable only upon a change of controlof Rubicon (including a public offering of Rubicon's shares) and, therefore, hadno ascertainable value prior to Mosaic's acquisition of Rubicon. Upon thisacquisition, we exercised these outstanding warrants and Mosaic purchased theresulting shares. As a result, we recorded a gain of $17.4 million (net ofassociated costs) in 2006.

**STOCK OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED STOCK**
        Under two stock option plans, wemay grant stock options and other awards from time to time to key employees,officers, directors, advisors and independent consultants to us or to any of oursubsidiaries. In general, options become exercisable over either a three-year orfive-year period from the grant date and expire 10 years after the date of grantfor options granted on or before May 28, 2003 and seven years after the date ofgrant thereafter. In certain cases for non-employee directors, options becomeexercisable six months after the grant date. Shares available for future optionand restricted stock grants at December 31, 2008 and 2007 totaled 4.2 millionand 5.2 million, respectively. Our policy is to issue new shares upon theexercise of options and, when possible, to offset these new shares byrepurchasing shares in the open market. We currently have no plans to repurchaseany shares in 2009. 

        Compensation cost recorded forstock-based employee compensation awards (including awards to non-employeedirectors) reflected in continuing operations as a selling, general andadministrative expense was $12.3 million, $14.0 million and $12.8 million for2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The total tax benefit recognized for thecompensation cost recorded for stock-based employee compensation awards for2008, 2007 and 2006 totaled $4.1 million, $2.4 million and $4.4 million,respectively. Total compensation cost for continuing operations related tounvested awards not yet recognized at December 31, 2008 was $11.5 million, whichis expected to be amortized over a weighted-average period of approximately 21months. Cash received from option exercises for 2008, 2007 and 2006 was $0.1million, $11.1 million and $32.4 million, respectively. 

        The following tables summarizeinformation about stock option transactions and related information (options inmillions):

        The fair value ofeach option award is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes-Mertonoption pricing model. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilityof our stock price and implied volatilities from publicly traded options on ourstock. We use historical data to estimate an option's expected life; theexpected life for grants to senior management-level employees and otheremployees are considered separately for valuation purposes. The risk-freeinterest rate input is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at thetime of the grant. Compensation cost, net of projected forfeitures, isrecognized on a straight-line basis over the period between the grant andvesting dates, 

- 79 -

with compensation cost for grants with a graded vesting schedule recognized	on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each	separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in substance,	multiple awards. We did not grant any options in 2006, 2007 or 2008. 

        Compensation cost for restrictedstock is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of our stockat the grant date over the amount the employee must pay to acquire the stock(which is generally zero). The compensation cost, net of projected forfeitures,is recognized over the period between the issue date and the date anyrestrictions lapse, with compensation cost for grants with a graded vestingschedule recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periodfor the total award. The restrictions do not affect voting and dividend rights.

**EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS***Defined Contribution Plan*
        We maintain the Jones ApparelGroup, Inc. Retirement Plan (the "Jones Plan") under Section 401(k) of theInternal Revenue Code (the "Code"). Employees not covered by a collectivebargaining agreement and meeting certain other requirements are eligible toparticipate in the Jones Plan. Under the Jones Plan, participants may elect tohave up to 50% of their salary (subject to limitations imposed by the Code)deferred and deposited with a qualified trustee, who in turn invests the moneyin a variety of investment vehicles as selected by each participant. Allemployee contributions into the Jones Plan are 100% vested. 

        We have elected to make the JonesPlan a "Safe Harbor Plan" under Section 401(k)(12) of the Code. As a result ofthis election, we make a fully-vested safe harbor matching contribution for alleligible participants amounting to 100% of the first 3% of the participant'ssalary deferred and 50% of the next 2% 

- 80 -

of salary deferred, subject to maximums set by the Department of theTreasury. We may, at our sole discretion, contribute additional amounts to allemployees on a pro rata basis. 

        We contributed approximately $7.1million, $6.9 million and $8.2 million to our defined contribution plan fromcontinuing operations during 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. 

*Defined Benefit Plans*

        We maintain several definedbenefit plans, including the Pension Plan for Associates of Nine West Group Inc.(the "Cash Balance Plan") and The Napier Company Retirement Plan for certainassociates of Victoria (the "Napier Plan"). The Cash Balance Plan expressesretirement benefits as an account balance which increases each year throughinterest credits. All benefits under the Napier Plan are frozen at the amountsearned by the participants as of December 31, 1995. Our funding policy is tocontribute at least the minimum amount to meet the funding ratio requirements ofthe Pension Protection Act, which began to phase in during 2008.

 Plan Assets

         The weighted-average asset allocations at December 31,2008 and 2007 by asset category are as follows:
December 31,        2008 		2007         Equity        securities56%  62%       Debt securities33% 		31%       Other11%  7%       Total100%       100%        
        Our plans are designed todiversify investments across types of investments and investment managers.Permitted investment vehicles include investment-grade fixed income securities,domestic and foreign equity securities, mutual funds, guaranteed insurancecontracts and real estate, while speculative and derivative investment vehiclesare generally prohibited. The investment managers have full discretion to managetheir portion of the investments subject to the objectives and policies of therespective plans. The performance of the investment managers is reviewed on aregular basis. The primary objectives are to achieve a rate of return sufficientto meet current and future plan cash requirements and to emphasize long-termgrowth of principal while avoiding excessive risk and maintaining fundliquidity. At December 31, 2008, the weighted-average target allocationpercentages for fund investments were 48% U. S. equity securities, 34% fixedincome securities, 2% real estate and 16% international equity securities. 

        To determine the overall expectedlong-term rate-of-return-on-assets assumption, we add an expected inflation rateto the expected long-term real returns of our various asset classes, taking intoaccount expected volatility and correlation between the returns of the assetclasses as follows: for equities and real estate, a historical averagearithmetic real return; for government fixed-income securities, current yieldson inflation-indexed bonds; and for corporate fixed-income securities, the yieldon government fixed-income securities plus a blend of current and historicalcredit spreads.

**BUSINESS SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA INFORMATION**

        We identify operating segmentsbased on, among other things, differences in products sold and the way ourmanagement organizes the components of our business for purposes of allocatingresources and assessing performance. Our operations are comprised of fourreportable segments: wholesale better apparel, wholesale jeanswear, wholesalefootwear and accessories, and retail. Segment revenues are generated from thesale of apparel, footwear and accessories through wholesale channels and our ownretail locations. The wholesale segments include wholesale operations with thirdparty department and other retail stores and our own retail stores, the retailsegment includes operations by our own stores, and income and expenses relatedto trademarks, licenses and general corporate functions are reported under"licensing, other and eliminations." We define segment profit as operatingincome before net interest expense, goodwill impairment charges, gains or losseson sales of subsidiaries, equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates andincome taxes. Summarized below are our revenues and income by reportable segmentfor 2008, 2007 and 2006. As a result of our exiting certain moderate productlines during 2007, we renamed our wholesale moderate apparel segment as ourwholesale jeanswear segment to better reflect the products we produce in thatsegment (which include jeanswear labels such as *Gloria Vanderbilt, l.e.i.,GLO, Bandolino Blu* and *Grane* as well as the *Energie, Erika* and*Pappagallo* product lines).

**ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ONACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE**
        Not Applicable.

**ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**
        As required by Exchange Act Rule13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with theparticipation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our ChiefFinancial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of ourdisclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by thisreport. 

        The purpose of disclosure controlsis to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed withor submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules andforms. Disclosure controls are also designed to ensure that such information isaccumulated and communicated to our management, including our President andChief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timelydecisions regarding required disclosure. The purpose of internal controls is toprovide reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, ourassets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and our transactionsare properly recorded and reported to permit the preparation of our financialstatements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. 

        Our management does not expectthat our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent all error andall fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, canprovide only reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the objectives ofthe control system are met. The design of a control system must also reflect thefact that there are resource constraints, with the benefits of controlsconsidered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in allcontrol systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance thatall control issues and instances of fraud (if any) within the company have beendetected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments indecision-making can be faulty and that simple errors or mistakes can occur.Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, bycollusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Thedesign of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptionsabout the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that anydesign will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential futureconditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes inconditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures maydeteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective controlsystem, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. 

        Our internal controls areevaluated on an ongoing basis by our Internal Audit department, by otherpersonnel in our organization and by our independent auditors in connection withtheir audit and review activities. The overall goals of these various evaluationactivities are to monitor our disclosure and internal controls and to makemodifications as necessary, as disclosure and internal controls are intended tobe dynamic systems that change (including improvements and corrections) asconditions warrant. Part of this evaluation is to determine whether there wereany significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls, orwhether we had identified any acts of fraud involving personnel who have asignificant role in the our internal controls. Significant deficiencies arecontrol issues that could have a significant adverse effect on the ability torecord, process, summarize and report financial data in the financialstatements; material weaknesses are particularly serious conditions where theinternal control does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk thatmisstatements caused by error or fraud may occur in amounts that would bematerial in relation to the financial statements and not be detected within atimely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assignedfunctions. 

        Based upon this evaluation, ourPresident and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concludedthat both our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls andprocedures are effective in timely alerting them to material informationrequired to be included in our periodic SEC

filings and ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in theseperiodic filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the timeperiods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that our internal controlsare effective in ensuring that our financial statements are fairly presented inconformity with generally accepted accounting principles. 

        We have made changes to ourinternal controls and procedures over financial reporting to address theimplementation of SAP, an enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system, whichoccurred during the fourth quarter of 2006. We began the process of implementingSAP throughout Jones Apparel Group, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries. SAPwill integrate our operational and financial systems and expand thefunctionality of our financial reporting processes. During the fourth fiscalquarter of 2008, no additional businesses were converted to this system. We haveadequately controlled the transition to the new processes and controls, with nonegative impact to our internal control environment. We expect to roll out theimplementation of this system to all locations over a multi-year period. As thephased roll out occurs, we will experience changes in internal control overfinancial reporting each quarter. We expect this ERP system to further advanceour control environment by automating manual processes, improving managementvisibility and standardizing processes as its full capabilities are utilized.
