ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

The Company contracts for the manufacture of a variety of garments, primarily
basic women's sportswear which includes suits, skirts, blouses, blazers,
pants, shorts, vests and dresses, using assorted fabrics including rayons,
linens, cotton and wool. The Company arranges for the manufacture of garments
for customers under private labels selected by its customers. It markets its
products exclusively in the United States directly to large wholesalers
directly and indirectly to national retailers and buying organizations, and
directly to women's chain clothing stores and catalogues.

Substantially, all of the Company's garments are sold on a "package" basis
pursuant to which the Company markets at fixed prices finished garments to
the customer's specifications and quantity requirements, arranges for
production of the garments and delivers the garments directly to the customer
at the port of entry. In its marketing, the Company emphasizes these package
arrangements and what it believes to be the better quality and lower prices
of garments produced by skilled Macedonian workers as compared to lower paid
workers in certain other regions. See Item 1.

As a package provider, the Company sources and purchases fabrics and trims,
arranges for cutting and sewing, and coordinates any other services required
to provide a finished garment. Since the Company manufactures its finished
products only upon receipt of purchase orders from its wholesale and retail
customers, it therefore does not maintain an inventory of finished products.
The Company believes that in this way it minimizes the marketing and fashion
risk generally associated with the apparel industry. Fabrics and trims are
purchased from suppliers in China, India, Russia, Romania, Italy and the
United States. After dying the fabric, if necessary, the fabric and trim are
shipped to factories selected by the Company (primarily located in Macedonia)
where they are manufactured into finished garments under the Company's
management and quality control guidance. The finished products are then
shipped directly to New York City where the Company's customers claim the
goods either at the port in New York City or at a consolidating warehouse in
Astoria, New York.

Except for historical information contained herein, the matters set forth may
include forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainty
that may cause actual results to differ materially. Such forward-looking
statements that may be contained in this document could include in particular
statements concerning business back-logs, operating efficiencies and
capacities, capital spending, and other expenses. Among other factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially are the following; dependence
upon unaffiliated manufacturers and fabric suppliers, dependence on certain
customers, foreign operations, competition, risks associated with significant
growth, uncertainties in apparel industry, general economic conditions,
seasonality, political instability, concentration of accounts receivable and
possible fluctuations in operating results.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage
relationship to net revenues of certain items in the Company's statements;

</TABLE>

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 ("2000") COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
MARCH 31, 1999 ("1999")

SALES

Sales for 2000 were $6,429,651 which represented a decrease of $1,789,463 or
21.8% from 1999 net sales of $8,219,114. The decrease in sales was primarily
attributable to decreased purchases by existing customers. The Company has a
backlog of orders for approximately $700,000 that it expects to fulfill early
in the second quarter.

COST OF GOODS SOLD

Cost of goods sold in 2000 was $5,510,954 or 85.7% of sales, a decrease of
$1,740,771 from $7,251,725 or 24% of sales in 1999. The decrease in cost of
goods sold was primarily attributable to the decrease in sales. The decrease
in the percentage of cost of goods sold was primarily attributable to
decreases in cost of materials and shipping expenses.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit was $918,697 for 2000, a decrease of $48,692 from $967,389 for
1999. The gross profit percentage was 14.3% in 2000, an increase from 11.8%
in 1999. The increase in the gross profit percentage was primarily
attributable to decreased cost of materials and shipping expenses.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $784,826 or 12.2%
of sales for 2000, an increase of $159,432 from $625,394 or 7.6% of sales for
1999. The increase in SG&A expense levels was primarily attributable to
payments related to factoring, office salaries, travel and trade shows.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense for 2000 was $105,368 compared to $41,353 for 1999. The
increase in interest was primarily attributable to the increase in the
utilization of existing financing vehicles.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

There was no provision for income taxes for 2000 compared to $134,000 for
1999. The decrease in the provision for income taxes for 2000 was primarily
attributable to decreased earnings.

<PAGE>

LIQUIDITY

The Company has 575,000 warrants outstanding with an exercise price of $7.50
per warrant expiring September 23, 2002. The Company has 50,000 underwriter
warrants outstanding with an exercise price of $14.40 per unit. Each unit
consists of two shares of the Company's common stock and one warrant as
described above. The Company does not know whether the warrants will be
exercised in 1999. Without exercise of those warrants, the Company may need
to limit its growth in order to more efficiently manage its available funds
and funds generated by operations.

It is the Company's intention, however, to utilize more fully and possibly
increase its existing line of credit with a major lending institution and its
credit facility arrangement with a New York factoring company. These measures
are required due to the significant cash requirements related to increases in
revenues.

The Company does not expect its historical rate of increase in sales growth
to continue and further expects its rate of growth to be lower in the future
as it begins to reach its full operating capacity constraints and utilization
of its existing capital resources. In the event the Company is able to obtain
additional equity capital through the exercise, if any, of its outstanding
warrants or other increases in potential working capital as mentioned above,
however, the Company believes that this new working capital may allow it to
grow more quickly.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since its formation, the Company has financed its operations and met its
capital requirements primarily through cash flows from operations, customer
advances, from principals, credit facilities, bridge loans, a private
placement and its IPO.

The initial use of IPO funds was to repay certain debt and to purchase raw
materials, for working capital and the eventual purchase of wool
manufacturing equipment. The Company's primary need for cash is for working
capital purposes. The Company may raise capital through the issuance of
long-term or short-term debt, or the issuance of securities in private or
public transactions to fund future expansion of its business. There can be no
assurance that acceptable financing for future transactions can be obtained.

INFLATION

The Company does not anticipate a significant increase in inflation in the
United States over the short-term. All of the Company's transactions
worldwide are conducted on a dollar-denominated basis which is intended to
mitigate the possible impact of volatile currencies that may arise as a
result of global corporations crowding emerging markets in search of growth.

SEASONALITY

The Company's revenues and operating results have exhibited some degree of
seasonality in past periods.
