         NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   Basis of Presentation:

       The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of
       March 31, 2003, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for
       the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, and the
       condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month
       periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, have been prepared in accordance
       with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
       America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not
       include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
       principles generally accepted in the United States of America for
       complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
       adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
       necessary for a fair presentation have been included. It is suggested
       that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in
       conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
       included in the Company's 2002 Annual Report to Stockholders on Form
       10-K. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2003 are
       not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full fiscal year.

2.   Recently Issued Accounting Standards:

       In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
       Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting
       for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities", replacing
       Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition
       for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
       Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No.
       146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or
       disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred instead of
       at the date an entity commits to an exit plan. This statement also
       established that fair value is the objective for the initial measurement
       of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal
       activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company has
       adopted this statement and it did not have a material impact on its
       financial position or the results of operations.

       In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
       Interpretation 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements
       for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others."
       The interpretation elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for
       most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of
       credit. It also clarifies that at the time a company issues a guarantee,
       the company must recognize an initial liability for the fair value, or
       market value, of the obligations it assumes under the guarantee and must
       disclose that information in its interim and annual financial statements.
       The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the

                                        6
<PAGE>

       guarantee for the fair value of the guarantor's obligations does not
       apply to product warranties or to guarantees accounted for as
       derivatives. We have evaluated the accounting provisions of the
       interpretations and there was no material impact on our financial
       condition, results of operations or cash flows for the period ending
       March 31, 2003.

       In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
       Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 148"). SFAS No. 148 provides
       alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair
       value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.
       In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.
       123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" to require more prominent
       and more frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects
       of stock-based compensation. SFAS 148 also amends the disclosure
       provisions of SFAS 123. We have adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS
       148 as of December 31, 2002 (See Note 3).

3. Stock-Based Compensation

       The Company's Board of Directors and stockholders adopted a Stock Option
       Plan pursuant to which all full-time employees and non-employee Directors
       of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates are eligible to
       receive stock options. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan
       generally have a ten year life and typically vest immediately. As of
       March 31, 2003, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock for which
       stock options may be granted under the Stock Option Plan is 427,161. As
       of March 31, 2003, 611,161 shares of Common Stock were available for the
       grant of options under the Stock Option Plan.

       Pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
       Stock Issued to Employees," the Company accounts for stock-based employee
       compensation arrangements using the intrinsic value method. Accordingly,
       no compensation expense has been recorded in the consolidated financial
       statements with respect to option grants. The Company has adopted the
       disclosure provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement
       No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation," as amended by
       Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 148.

       Had the Company elected to recognize compensation expense for stock-based
       compensation using the fair value method net earnings (loss) basic and
       diluted net earnings (loss) per share would have been as follows:

    The weighted average fair value of the Company's stock options was
    calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
    weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2003: no dividend yield;
    expected volatility of 35% risk-free interest rate of 3.5% and expected life
    of ten years. The weighted average fair value of options granted during the
    nine months ended March 31, 2003 was $.86.

     $12.875 per share were outstanding at March 31, 2003, but were not included
     in the computation of dilutive computation because the loss in the period
     causes the options to be anti-dilutive. Additionally, options to acquire
     249,000 common shares were not included because the average market price
     was below the option price.

(b)  Options to purchase 427,161 common shares at prices ranging from $2.25 to
     $12.875 per share were outstanding at March 31, 2002, but were not included
     in the computation of dilutive loss per share because to do so would have
     been anti-dilutive as the average market price was below the option price.

6. Stock Repurchases

       On December 5, 2002 the Company announced that the Board of Directors
       authorized the repurchase by the Company of up to 350,000 shares of the
       Company's Common Stock. Purchases may be made from time to time in the
       open market and through privately negotiated transactions, subject to
       general market and other conditions. The Company is financing these
       repurchases from its own funds and/or from its new bank credit facility.
       As of March 31, 2003 the Company repurchased 85,200 shares of its Common
       Stock at a cost of approximately $250,000.

7. Financing Agreements:

       On December 23, 2002 the Company entered into a line of credit agreement
       with a new bank. The new credit facility, which expires December 1, 2004,
       provides for short-term loans and the issuance of letters of credit in an
       aggregate amount not exceeding $32,000,000. Based on a borrowing formula,
       the Company may borrow up to $22,000,000 in short-term loans and up to
       $32,000,000 including letters of credit. Substantially all of the
       Company's assets are pledged to the bank as collateral (except for the
       West New York, New Jersey facility, which has been separately mortgaged
       as noted below). The line of credit requires that the Company maintain a
       minimum tangible net worth of $11,000,000 through June 30, 2003 and
       $12,000,000 through June 30, 2004. As of March 31, 2003, borrowing on the
       short-term line of credit was $375,000, and the Company had $9,916,000 of
       additional availability (based on the borrowing formula) under its credit
       facility. At March 31, 2003, the Company was contingently obligated on
       open letters of credit for approximately $8,517,000. Borrowing during the
       year was at the bank's prime rate or below, at the option of the Company.
       The bank's prime rate at March 31, 2003 was 4.25%.

       On August 14, 2002, the Company consummated a mortgage loan in the amount
       of $3,250,000. The financing is secured by a mortgage of the Company's
       West New York, New Jersey headquarters and warehouse facility. The
       $3,250,000 loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 7% per annum. The
       financing has a fifteen-year term, but is callable by the bank lender at
       any time after September 1, 2007 and may be prepaid by the Company, along
       with a prepayment fee, from time to time during the term of the
       financing. The proceeds of the financing are being used for general
       working capital purposes.

8. Acquisition:

       On January 10, 2002, the Company acquired all of the issued and
       outstanding stock of Topsville, Inc., a New York City based manufacturer
       and distributor of private label infants' and children's clothing. The
       tangible and intangible assets acquired include, among other things,
       finished goods, work-in-process and raw material inventory, customer
       orders, trade names, office leases in New York City and Hong Kong, an
       office/warehouse facility in Florida, and office equipment, furniture and
       fixtures. The aggregate purchase price for the acquisition was
       $3,246,000, of which $1,746,000 was paid at the closing of the
       transaction, with the remainder to be paid during the fifteen-month
       period after closing. The Company used its line of bank credit to pay for
       a portion of the purchase price at closing. At March 31, 2003, $100,000
       was unpaid under the terms of the purchase agreement.

       For the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2002, the Company
       recorded an amortization charge of $809,000 ($389,000 in cost of goods
       sold and $420,000 in selling and administrative expenses). These charges
       primarily represent the allocation of a portion of the purchase price to
       fair value the inventory and open orders (backlog) purchased from
       Topsville, Inc., which were shipped from the date of acquisition to March
       31, 2002. The Company incurred additional amortization of $480,000 the
       fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002, with a final amount, totaling
       $79,000, charged to earnings in fiscal 2003's first quarter ended
       September 30, 2002.

       The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended
       March 31, 2003 is as follows:

       Assuming Topsville was acquired on July 1, 2000, the pro forma results
       for the Company would have been as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires the appropriate application of certain accounting
policies, many of which require estimates and assumptions about future events
and their impact on amounts reported in the financial statements and related
notes. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty,
the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. Such differences
could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Management believes that its application of accounting policies, and the
estimates inherently required by the policies are reasonable. These accounting
policies and estimates are periodically reevaluated, and adjustments are made
when facts and circumstances dictate a change. Historically, management has
found the application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual
results generally have not differed materially from those determined using
necessary estimates.

The Company's accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, included in the June 30, 2002 Annual Report
on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management has
identified certain critical accounting policies that are described below.

Merchandise inventory
The Company's merchandise inventory is carried at the lower of cost on a
first-in, first-out basis, or market. The Company writes down its inventory for
estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between
the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions
about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less
favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs
may be required.

Allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses
resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the
financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an
impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be
required.

Market development accruals
The Company estimates reductions to revenue for customer programs and incentive
offerings including special pricing agreements, price protection, promotions and
other volume-based incentives. If market conditions were to decline, the Company
may take actions to increase customer incentive offerings possibly resulting in
an incremental reduction of revenue at the time the incentive is offered.

                                       13
<PAGE>

Long-lived assets, excluding goodwill
In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of long-lived assets, the
Company performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash
flows of the related long-lived assets. If the carrying value of the related
asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the Company reduces the carrying
value to its fair value.

Goodwill
Goodwill is annually reviewed for impairment and whenever events and changes in
circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable from its
estimated future cash flows. In making this assessment, management relies on a
number of factors including operating results, business plans, economic
projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. A change in
these underlying assumptions may cause a change in the results of the tests and,
as such, could cause fair value to be less than the carrying value. In such
event, the Company would then be required to record a charge, which would impact
earnings. The Company will continue to review the carrying value of goodwill for
impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if circumstances indicate
impairment may have occurred.

Deferred taxes
In assessing the need for a deferred tax valuation allowance, we consider future
taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. Since
we were able to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax
assets in the future, in excess of its recorded amount, an adjustment to the
deferred tax asset was not deemed necessary. Likewise, should we determine that
we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax asset in the
future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in
the period such determination was made.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash and cash equivalents increased $91,000 during the nine-month
period ended March 31, 2003 to $186,000 from $95,000 at June 30, 2002.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $7,253,000 resulting primarily
from a decrease in inventory totaling $6,402,000 and a decrease in accounts
receivable of $2,592,000, partly offset by a reduction of accounts payable and
other current liabilities totaling $2,886,000. In addition, funds used in
financing activities totaling $6,913,000 were, for the most part, the result of
an $8,720,000 repayment under the Company's credit facility, and payments of
acquisition notes totaling $1,000,000, offset by $3,057,000 of mortgage loan
proceeds. Net cash used in investing activities of $249,000 was for the purchase
of property and equipment.

The Company previously announced that the Board of Directors authorized the
repurchase by the Company of up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.
Purchases may be made from time to time in the open market and through privately
negotiated transactions, subject to general market and other conditions. The
Company intends to finance these repurchases from its own funds from operations
and/or from its bank credit facility. As of March 31, 2003, the Company
purchased 85,200 shares of its Common Stock at a cost of approximately $250,000.

                                       14
<PAGE>

On December 23, 2002, the Company completed an agreement with a new bank for an
increased line of credit, which extends through December 1, 2004. The new credit
facility provides the Company with up to $22,000,000 in short-term loans and up
to $32,000,000 including letters of credit, based on a borrowing formula.
Borrowing was at the bank's prime rate or below at the option of the Company, as
provided for under the terms of the loan agreement. Substantially all of the
Company's assets are pledged to the bank as collateral (except for the West New
York, New Jersey facility, which has been separately mortgaged, as noted below).
The line of credit requires that the Company maintain a minimum tangible net
worth of $11,000,000 through June 30, 2003 and $12,000,000 through June 30,
2004. Borrowing on the line of credit was $375,000 as of March 31, 2003, and the
Company had $9,916,000 of additional availability (based on the borrowing
formula) under its credit facility. At March 31, 2003, the Company was
contingently obligated on open letters of credit for approximately $8,517,000.
The bank's prime rate at March 31, 2003 was 4.25%.

On August 14, 2002, the Company consummated a mortgage loan on its West New
York, New Jersey headquarters facility in the principal amount of $3,250,000.

The Company believes that funds provided by operations, existing working capital
and the Company's new bank line of credit should be sufficient to meet
foreseeable working capital needs.

There are no plans for significant capital expenditures in the near term.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales were $20,816,000 and $86,450,000 during the three and nine-month
periods ended March 31, 2003 compared to $22,020,000 and $55,898,000 in the
three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2002, respectively.

Net sales for the Apparel category were $16,469,000 for the quarter ended March
31, 2003, an increase in net sales of $1,250,000, or 8.2 %, compared to the same
quarter in fiscal 2002. The sales increase for this category was primarily due
to increased customer orders from existing customers of the women's sleepwear
business. For the nine-month period ended March 31, 2003 net sales for the
Apparel category were $67,069,000, or 97.9% better than the prior fiscal year's
same period totaling $33,894,000, mostly attributable to the acquisition of the
Topsville children's apparel business in January 2002.

Net sales for the Handbags category were $4,347,000 for the three-month period
ended March 31, 2003, a decrease of $2,454,000, or about 36.1% below the same
three-month period in the prior year, primarily related to the non-renewal of
the Anne Klein license and lower sales for the Company's premium and children's
handbag businesses. Fiscal 2003's nine-month period ended March 31, 2003 had net
sales of $19,381,000, or 11.9% less than the prior comparable nine-month fiscal
period, which totaled $22,004,000. For the nine-month period, the drop in net
sales resulted from the non-renewal of the Anne Klein license, partly offset by
sales increases in both the children's and premium bag businesses.

Gross margins were 25.9% and 23.4% in the three-month and nine-month periods
ended March 31, 2003 compared to 21.9% and 23.4% in the comparable periods ended
March 31, 2002, respectively. However, the three and nine-month periods ended
March 31, 2002 include a $389,000 amortization expense related to the portion of
purchase costs allocated to inventory for the Topsville children's apparel
acquisition in January 2002 and had the effect of decreasing last year's gross
margins by 1.8% and .7%, respectively, as discussed below.

Gross margin for the Apparel category in the three-month period ended March 31,
2003, improved by 6.2% to 26.5% from 20.3% (and improved by 3.6% excluding the
above mentioned amortization expense) in the prior comparable three-month
period. This improvement was primarily attributable to higher margins in the
women's sleepwear business as well as higher margins attributable to the
Topsville children's apparel business. For the nine-month period ended March 31,
2003, gross margins were 23.8%, or 3.8% higher (and improved by 2.6% excluding
the above mentioned amortization expense), versus the prior year comparable
period, mostly the result of higher margins in the newly acquired children's
apparel business.

Gross margin for the Handbags category was 23.7 % in the quarter ended March 31,
2003 compared to 25.6% in the similar prior year quarter. This 1.9% lower gross
margin in the current period reflects the non-renewal of the Anne Klein
licensing business and lower competitive margins in the Company's premium
business, offset to some extent by better children's handbag margins. For the
nine-month period ended March 31, 2003, the Handbags category gross profit
decreased to 22.0% from 28.7 %, for the same reasons.

                                       16

Shipping, selling and administrative expenses for the three month period ended
March 31, 2003, totaling $5,617,000, were $40,000 more than the third quarter in
the prior year's comparable period (and $460,000 more excluding the $420,000
amortization expense). The increase in shipping, selling and administrative
expenses is mostly attributable to an increase in selling commissions in the
Apparel category. As a percentage of net sales, shipping, selling and
administrative expenses increased to 27.0% from 25.3%, or 1.7% but was 3.6%
higher without the amortization expense, mainly due to the relative level of
fixed costs compared with lower net sales. Shipping, selling and administrative
expenses for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2003 were $18,333,000 (21.2%
of net sales), or $4,515,000 higher than the same nine-month period in the prior
fiscal year ($4,935,000 higher excluding the $420,000 amortization expense). The
period ended March 31, 2002 totaled $13,818,000 (24.7% of net sales). The
increase in the current nine month period is mostly attributable to shipping
selling and administrative expenses in the Topsville children's apparel business
acquired in January 2002.

Interest expense of $117,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2003 compares to
$45,000 in the prior comparable period. The increase of $72,000 is mostly the
result of interest expense associated with the $3,250,000 building mortgage
consummated in August 2002. For the nine-month period ended March 31, 2003,
interest expense totaled $474,000 versus $176,000, primarily due to interest
expense attributable to the building mortgage in the current period, as
mentioned above.

The loss before income taxes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 of
$333,000, compares to a loss before income taxes in the equivalent prior fiscal
period totaling $789,000. However, the third quarter ended March 31, 2002
includes $809,000 of amortization expense related to (1) open orders (backlog)
totaling $420,000 and (2) fair value allocation of inventory totaling $389,000
for the Topsville acquisition in January 2002, respectively. Lower sales and
higher interest expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2003 versus
the similar year ago period, was partly offset by higher gross profit margin for
this year's third quarter compared to the comparable prior year three-month
period.

For the nine-month period ended March 31, 2003, pretax earnings of $1,393,000
compares to a loss in the prior comparable period of $888,000 (including in the
period ending March 31, 2002, $809,000 of amortization expense referred to
above). Significantly higher sales and gross profit dollars was not completely
offset by higher shipping, selling and administrative expenses, and interest
expense, as discussed above.

The net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 of $213,000
compared to a net loss for the same period last year of $505,000 (including an
after-tax charge of $518,000 of amortization expense discussed above). For the
nine-month period ended March 31, 2003, net earnings were $892,000, against a
net loss of $568,000 in the period ended March 31, 2002, including the $518,000
after-tax charge relating to the amortization expense, discussed above.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting and Reporting Changes

       In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
       Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting
       for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities", replacing
       Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition
       for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
       Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No.
       146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or
       disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred instead of
       at the date an entity commits to an exit plan. This statement also
       established that fair value is the objective for the initial measurement
       of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal
       activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company has
       adopted this statement and it did not have a material impact on its
       financial position or the results of operations.

       In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
       Interpretation 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
       Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. The
       Interpretation elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for
       most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of
       credit. It also clarifies that at the time a company issues a guarantee,
       the company must recognize an initial liability for the fair value, or
       market value, of the obligations it assumes under the guarantee and must
       disclose that information in its interim and annual financial statements.
       The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the
       guarantee for the fair value of the guarantor's obligations does not
       apply to product warranties or to guarantees accounted for as
       derivatives. We have evaluated the accounting provisions of the
       interpretations and there was no material impact on our financial
       condition, results of operations or cash flows for the period ending
       March 31, 2003.

       In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
       Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 148"). SFAS No. 148 provides
       alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair
       value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.
       In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.
       123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" to require more prominent
       and more frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects
       of stock-based compensation. SFAS 148 also amends the disclosure
       provisions of SFAS 123. We have adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS
       148 as of December 31, 2002 (See Note 3).

Seasonality

       The Company's business is subject to substantial seasonal variations.
       Historically, the Company has generally realized a significant portion of
       its net sales and net income for the year during the first and second
       fiscal quarters. The Company's quarterly results of operations may also
       fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of other factors,
       including the timing of shipments to customers and economic conditions.

                                       18

       The Company believes this is the general pattern associated with its
       sales to the retail industry and expects this pattern will continue in
       the future. Consequently, comparisons between quarters are not
       necessarily meaningful and the results for any quarter are not
       necessarily indicative of future results, or results for a full year.

Forward-Looking Statements

       This Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements that are being made
       pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
       Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company's actual performance and
       results may vary as a result of a number of risks, uncertainties and
       other factors, both foreseen and unforeseen, including general economic
       and business conditions, competition in the accessories and apparel
       markets, continuing favorable sales patterns, pricing and consumer buying
       trends. Additional uncertainty exists for the potential negative impact
       that Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) may have on our business,
       as it relates to our production in the Far East and other countries in
       which we operate.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

       There have been no material changes in the information set forth under
       the caption "Item 7A-Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About
       Market Risk" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
       year ended June 30, 2002.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

       Within the 90-day period prior to the filing date of this report, the
       Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
       participation of management of the Company, including the Company's Chief
       Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of
       the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and
       procedures. Based on the Company's evaluation, the Company's Chief
       Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
       Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There have
       been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in
       other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent
       to the date of the Company's evaluation.
