                               Amendment No. 1 to

                                  Schedule 13D


         This amends the Schedule 13D dated August 15, 1997 (the "Schedule 13D")
filed by Dickstein & Co., L.P.  ("Dickstein & Co."),  Dickstein  Focus Fund L.P.
("Dickstein    Focus"),     Dickstein    International    Limited    ("Dickstein
International"),  Dickstein Partners,  L.P.  ("Dickstein  Partners"),  Dickstein
Partners Inc.  ("Dickstein  Inc.") and Mark Dickstein with respect to the Common
Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"),  of The Leslie Fay Company,  Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company").  Notwithstanding this Amendment No. 1, the
Schedule 13D speaks as of its date.  Capitalized  terms used without  definition
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

         I. Item 3 of the  Schedule  13D  "Source  and  Amount of Funds or Other
Consideration." is amended and restated as follows:

         "The shares of Common  Stock  reported to be owned by  Dickstein & Co.,
Dickstein Focus, Dickstein International and Mark Dickstein were acquired in the
open market. The total cost of the reported shares by Dickstein & Co., Dickstein
Focus, Dickstein International and Mark Dickstein is $2,572,724.25, $700,264.25,
$496,067  and  $167,380,  respectively.  Such costs  were  funded out of working
capital (and in the case of Mark Dickstein,  personal funds),  which may, at any
given time,  include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course
of business."

         II. Items 5(a) and 5(c) of the Schedule 13D  "Interest in Securities of
the Issuer." are amended and restated as follows:

         "(a) The  Reporting  Persons  beneficially  own an aggregate of 665,606
shares of Common  Stock,  representing  approximately  19.6% of the Common Stock
outstanding.   Dickstein  &  Co.  owns  448,231  of  such  shares,  representing
approximately 13.2% of the Common Stock outstanding, Dickstein Focus owns 99,500
of such shares, representing approximately 2.9% of the Common Stock outstanding,
Dickstein International owns 85,996 of such shares,  representing  approximately
2.5% of the Common Stock  outstanding,  and Mark  Dickstein  owns 31,879 of such
shares,  representing  approximately  of 1% the Common Stock  outstanding.2  The
Common  Stock  was  issued  pursuant  to the  Issuer's  Amended  Joint  Plan  of
Reorganization  (the "POR") dated December 5, 1996.  The POR was  consummated on
June 4,  1997.  On May 1,  1997,  certain  of the  Reporting  Persons  agreed to
purchase,  in an open market  transaction,  on an "if and when issued" basis, an
aggregate  of 540,000  shares of Common  Stock.  430,368 of the shares of Common
Stock  included  in  this  transaction  settled  on  July  23,  1997  after  the
consummation  of the POR and are included in the percentages  stated above.  The
balance of the shares  (109,632) are scheduled to settle on or about November 3,
1997 for a price of $5.25 per share.  85,269 of these shares will be acquired by
Dickstein  &  Co.,  16,242  of  these  shares  will  be  acquired  by  Dickstein
International  and 8,121 of these  shares will be  acquired  by Mark  Dickstein.
These shares are not included in the percentages stated above.

         On August 20, 1997,  certain of the Reporting Persons agreed to acquire
from a third party  ("Seller"),  on a so-called "if and when issued"  basis,  an
aggregate of up to 133,995  shares (the  "Subject  Shares") of Common Stock at a
price (including commission) of $7.83 per share. The Seller's obligation to sell
the Subject  Shares to the  Reporting  Persons is  contingent  upon the issuance
pursuant to the POR of such shares to Seller's counter-party upon

- -------- 

2    Percentages  are based upon 3,400,000  shares of Common Stock  outstanding,
     the amount of shares issued in connection with the POR.

the resolution of certain  pre-petition  claims.  94,995 of these shares will be
acquired  by  Dickstein  & Co.,  17,000  of these  shares  will be  acquired  by
Dickstein International and 22,000 of these shares will be acquired by Dickstein
Focus. These shares are not included in the percentages stated above.

         Mark Kaufman,  a Vice President of Dickstein Inc., owns 1,000 shares of
Common Stock.

and the Schedule II to the Schedule 13D, none of the persons  identified in Item
2 has effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days. All
such transactions were effected in the open market."
