                          Notes to Financial Statements


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The balance sheet at August 1, 1998 and the statements of operations and cash
flows for the quarters and six months ended August 1, 1998 and August 2, 1997
include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements required by generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted. Operating results for the quarter ended August 1, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ended January 30, 1999. It is suggested that these unaudited financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for
the fiscal year ended January 31, 1998 included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for such year.

2.  INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes primarily represents alternative minimum tax and
state and local taxes for states that do not allow net operating loss
carryforwards.

3.  USE OF ESTIMATES

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

4.  REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT

On May 12, 1998, the Company refinanced the indebtedness under its prior credit
facility with borrowings under a new secured credit facility with Congress
Financial Corporation (the "New Credit Facility") and an $8.0 million unsecured
term loan with a bank (the "Unsecured Loan"). The New Credit Facility provides
for a revolving line of credit and a letter of credit facility aggregating $60.0
million. The availability of the revolving line of credit and letters of credit
under the New Credit Agreement is subject to certain inventory-related borrowing
base requirements. The indebtedness under the New Credit Facility bears interest
at variable rates based on LIBOR or the prime rate and matures in three years.
The New Credit Facility contains certain customary covenants (including
limitations on 

                                        4

                    Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)


indebtedness, liens and restricted payments) but does not contain any financial
covenants. The New Credit Facility is secured by the Company's inventory,
accounts receivable and certain assets. The Unsecured Loan is a three year term
loan that bears interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR. The repayment of the
indebtedness under the Unsecured Loan is supported by a letter of credit issued
under the New Credit Facility. The Company incurred debt issuance costs and
expenses of approximately $1.1 million, of which approximately $0.6 million was
related to the termination of the prior credit facility which is reflected in
the statement of operations as an extraordinary loss on the extinguishment of
debt. The balance of the debt issuance costs and expenses are being amortized
over the three year term of the New Credit Facility.

5.  PURCHASE PRICE IN EXCESS OF NET ASSETS ACQUIRED

A significant asset of the Company is "purchase price in excess of net assets
acquired", $38.9 million as of August 1, 1998. This consists of intangible
assets acquired in 1988, including trademark and goodwill. As management deemed
these intangible assets to be of indefinite lives, they have not been separated
on the face of the balance sheet. Based upon a recent appraisal, the Company's
trademark was valued at $55.0 million. Using similar valuation methodology, the
Company's trademark would have been valued at approximately $47.0 million at the
time of acquisition in 1988 and therefore its unamortized balance at August 1,
1998 would have been $35.4 million. Such an allocation would not have had any
effect on the financial condition or results of operations for any prior period.
The Company's "net tangible assets" at August 1, 1998, as defined by Nasdaq
Marketplace Rule 4200 (a)(27) (a rule relating to the listing maintenance
standard for the Nasdaq national market), was $5.8 million.

                             and Financial Condition


RESULT OF OPERATIONS--COMPARISON OF THE QUARTERS ENDED AUGUST 1, 1998 AND AUGUST
2, 1997

Sales for the quarter ended August 1, 1998 were $97.1 million versus $95.3
million for the comparable period in the prior year, an increase of $1.8 million
or 1.9%. Comparable store sales (stores that were in operation for both periods)
increased by 2.9%. The increase in net sales was due to the opening of four new
stores and the increase in comparable stores, partially offset by the closing of
twelve stores during the preceding 52 weeks, including one store closed in June
1998.

Gross profit for the quarter ended August 1, 1998 was $31.3 million as compared
to $25.6 million for the comparable period last year, an increase of $5.7
million or 22.2%. Gross margin increased to 32.3% from 26.9% for the comparable
period last year. The improvement in margin percent was primarily a result of
markdown reductions and the continuing shift in the Company's sales mix towards
merchandise, such as men's, accessories, gifts and intimate apparel, with higher
average gross margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended August 1,
1998 were $26.2 million as compared to $24.4 million during the comparable
period last year, an increase of $1.8 million, or 7.5%. The increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses was primarily due to $2.6 million of
additional payroll, occupancy, advertising and other costs related to the four
stores opened and six stores expanded during the preceding 52 weeks, partially
offset by $1.3 million of expense reductions attributable to the closing of
twelve stores during the preceding 52 weeks.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the quarter ended August 1, 1998 was
$2.9 million as compared to $2.7 million for the comparable period last year, an
increase of approximately $0.2 million, or 9.2%.

Net interest expense for the quarter ended August 1, 1998 was $3.7 million
versus $3.1 million for the comparable period last year, an increase of
approximately $0.6 million or 18.8%. The increase in net interest expense
primarily resulted from interest expense incurred on increased average
borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit. (See "Liquidity and
Capital Resources").

RESULT OF OPERATIONS--COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 1, 1998 AND
AUGUST 2, 1997

Sales for the six month period ended August 1, 1998 were $207.3 million versus
$207.9 million during the comparable period last year, a decrease of $0.6
million, or 0.3%. Comparable store sales (stores that were in operation for both
periods) decreased by 0.7%. The decrease in net sales was due to the closing of
twelve stores during the preceding 52 weeks, including one store closed in June
1998, partially offset by the opening of four new stores during the preceding 52
weeks and by the decrease in comparable store sales.

Gross profit for the six month period ended August 1, 1998 was $68.4 million, as
compared to $60.7 million for the comparable period last year, an increase of
$7.7 million, or 12.6%. Gross margin increased to 33.0% from 29.2% in the
comparable period last year. The improvement in margin percent was primarily a
result of markdown reductions and the continuing shift in the Company's sales
mix towards merchandise, such as men's, accessories, gifts, and intimate
apparel, with higher average gross margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six month period ended
August 1, 1998 were $54.8 million as compared to $53.3 million during the
comparable period last year, an increase of approximately $1.5 million, or 3.0%.
As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses was
26.5% versus 25.6% during the comparable period last year. The increase in
selling, general and administrative expenses was due to $4.9 million of
additional payroll, occupancy, advertising and other costs related to the four
stores opened and six stores expanded during the preceding 52 weeks, partially
offset by (i) $1.0 million of expense reductions related to comparable stores
and corporate, and (ii) $2.4 million of expense reductions attributable to the
twelve stores closed during the preceding 52 weeks.

Depreciation and amortization for the six month period ended August 1, 1998 was
$6.0 million as compared to $5.5 million for the comparable period last year, an
increase of approximately $0.5 million, or 9.3%.

Net interest expense for the six month period ended August 1, 1998 was $7.3
million versus $6.1 million for the comparable period last year, an increase of
$1.2 million, or 19.0%. The increase in net interest expense primarily resulted
from interest expense incurred on increased average borrowings under the
revolving line of credit. (See "Liquidity and Capital Resources").

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the second quarter ended August 1, 1998 net cash used in operating
activities totaled $5.3 million, of which cash of $1.3 million was provided by
operations, after adding back non-cash charges, offset by the use of net working
capital of approximately $6.6 million. Net cash used in investing activities
totaled $2.1 million during the quarter ended August 1, 1998. These expenditures
were principally related to capital expenditures for leasehold improvements and
fixtures primarily associated with the completion of the 1997/1998 new store and
expansion program. Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately
$6.6 million during the quarter ended August 1, 1998, and reflects the proceeds
from borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit.

Net cash used in operating activities totaled $3.8 million for the six months
ended August 1, 1998, of which cash of $6.2 million was provided from operations
after adding back non-cash charges, offset by the use of net working capital of
approximately $10.0 million primarily related to the closing of stores, such
amounts were previously accrued. Net cash used in investing activities totaled
$5.0 million for leasehold improvements and fixtures primarily associated with
the completion of the 1997/1998 new store and expansion program. Net cash
provided by financing activities was approximately $8.4 million during the six
months ended August 1, 1998, and reflects the proceeds from borrowings under the
Company's revolving line of credit.

On May 12, 1998, the Company completed a refinancing of its existing credit
facility with the New Credit Facility with Congress Financial and the $8.0
million Unsecured Loan. The New Credit Facility provides for a revolving line of
credit and a letter of credit facility aggregating $60.0 million. The Unsecured
Loan is supported by a letter of credit issued under the New Credit Facility.
The terms of the loans are for three years and do not contain any financial
covenants. The New Credit Facility, together with the cash generated from
operations is expected to be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital
and capital expenditure requirements over the next twelve months. Furthermore,
the Company's capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months are
primarily related to opening of one new store and infrastructure improvements.

YEAR 2000

The Company presently believes that the year 2000 issue will not pose
significant operational problems for its computer systems. The Company has
outside service contracts to maintain its computer software programs and expects
that all modifications and conversions will be completed on a timely basis. The
total dollar amount that the Company estimates will be spent to address its year
2000 issues is not expected to have a material financial impact. However, if
such modifications and conversions are not made, or are not completed in a
timely manner, the year 2000 issue could have a material adverse impact upon
Company operations.
