REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors of
Donna Karan International Inc.
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Donna Karan International
Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 3, 1999 and December 28,
1997, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders'
equity and partner's capital and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended January 3, 1999. Our audits also included the financial statement
schedule listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Donna Karan
International Inc. as of January 3, 1999 and December 28, 1997, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended January 3, 1999 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial
statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the
information set forth therein.
