                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)
                                 APRIL 30, 1995




NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles 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. Operating results for the three months ended April 30, 1995 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal
year ending January 31, 1996. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995. The Balance
Sheet at January 31, 1995 has been derived from the audited financial statements
at that date.

NOTE B - INCOME TAXES

    The liability method is used in accounting for income taxes. Under this
method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences
between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are
measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when
the differences reverse. Deferred income taxes result principally from
differences in the time of recognition of overhead in inventory, deductibility
of certain liabilities and depreciation expense.

NOTE C - RESTRICTED STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

    Effective June 1, 1990, the Company adopted a Restricted Stock Incentive
Plan ("RSIP"), administered by the Company's Stock Option Committee. Under the
RSIP, a maximum of 300,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock may be awarded
as bonuses to key employees. No more than 100,000 shares may be issued under
this plan during any calendar year. Upon grant, the shares shall be registered
in the name of the recipient who shall have the right to vote the shares and
receive cash dividends, but the right to receive the certificates and retain the
shares does not vest until the grantee has remained in the employ of the Company
for a period determined by the Stock Option Committee. At the time of vesting, a
portion of the shares may be withheld to cover withholding taxes due on the
compensation income resulting from the grant.

    At April 30, 1995, there were 206,000 shares reserved for future grant.

NOTE D - TREASURY STOCK

    On April 4, 1994, the Company purchased 2,761,800 shares of its outstanding
common stock for approximately $16,700,000, utilizing available cash funds.

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


Results of Operations

    Net sales for the three months ended April 30, 1995 decreased ($4,214,175)
(9.7%) compared to the same three month period of 1994. The decrease in net
sales was principally attributable to continued customer resistance to product
and pricing and a lack of fashion direction in the women's specialty apparel
industry.

Comparable store sales(2) - Percent Change         ( 1.89%)           ( 1.63%)

    Since fiscal 1993 the Company has trended toward lower sales and since
fiscal 1991 the Company has trended toward lower earnings. Sales have been lower
principally due to lower demand as a result of increased customer resistance to
product and pricing and a lack of fashion direction in the women's specialty
apparel industry. Management has tried and continues to try to adjust the
product mix and pricing philosophy in an attempt to stimulate sales. In March,
1995, the Company introduced shoes into 200 of its locations in an attempt to
generate new business and multiple sales. In August, 1993, the Company
introduced its private label credit card as a means of attempting to stimulate
sales. The credit card also serves a vehicle for direct mail contact with the
customer.

    The decrease in net sales was accompanied by a net loss of ($2,299,327)
compared to a net loss of ($1,605,382) for the same three month period of 1994.
The loss was primarily attributable to the decrease in total sales, along with
decreased margins as a result of increased competitive pressures. Sales and
margins at these levels are insufficient to cover fixed overhead. The net loss
for the three months ended April 30, 1994 was partially offset (to the extent of
$600,000) by refunds of insurance premiums received during the quarter. The
primary reason for the decreases in comparable store sales was customer
resistance to product and pricing and a lack of fashion direction in the women's
specialty apparel industry. Net loss was (5.9%) of net sales for the three
months ended April 30, 1995 and the net loss was (3.7%) of net sales for the
three months ended April 30, 1994.

    Cost of sales, including buying and occupancy costs for the three months
ended April 30, 1995 decreased $2,330,000 (6.6%) over the comparable three month
period of 1994. The principle reason for the dollar decrease was the decrease in
sales, and a decline in the average number of stores in operation. As a
percentage of net sales these costs were 83.8% for the three month period ended
April 30, 1995 and 81.0% for the three month period ended April 30, 1994. The
increased cost of sales percentage resulted principally from higher promotional
activity as a result of increased competitive pressures. Buying and occupancy
costs for the three months ended April 30, 1995 were 24.7% of sales and for the
comparable period in 1994 were 22.8% of sales. The percentage increase is a
result principally from decreased comparable store sales.

    current format and location. A store is added to the comparable store base
    in its 13th month of operation.

    The inventory turn-over rate was approximately 1.26 times during the three
months ended April 30, 1995 as compared to 1.31 times during the three months
ended April 30, 1994. Due to the comparability of these turns, the impact on
profit margins is not material.

    Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30,
1995 decreased $558,000 (5.6%) over the comparable three month period of 1994.
The decrease in selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended
April 30, 1995 was principally due to a decrease in the number of stores, a
decrease in sales, and a continuing control over expenses. Selling and
administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30, 1994 was offset by
approximately $600,000 of refunds received for health and worker's compensation
insurance as a result of favorable experience. As a percentage of net sales,
these expenses were 24.0% for the three month period ended April 30, 1995 and
23.0% for the three month period ended April 30, 1994.

    The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses of $18,000 was
principally attributed to the write-off of leasehold improvements of closed
stores, net of the remodeling of the Company's stores.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    During the three months ended April 30, 1995 and 1994, the Company funded
internally all of its operating needs, including capital expenditures for the
opening of new stores, remodeling of existing stores, and the acquisition of
Treasury stock. For the three months ended April 30, 1995, the Company used net
cash of $2,110,000 in operating activities as a result, principally, of the net
loss for the period, increased prepaid expenses, decreased trade accounts
payable net of decreased merchandise inventories.

    Merchandise inventory, for the three months ended April 30, 1995, decreased
principally as the result of the reduction in the total number of stores in
operation and the timing of the purchase of inventory. The decrease in income
taxes for the three months ended April 30, 1994 is the result of loss incurred
for the period and the payment of income taxes for the prior year end. The
company realized a loss for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 and the three
months ended April 30, 1995 and no income taxes were required.

    Net cash used in investing activities was $626,000 and $412,000 for the
three months ended April 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. These funds were used
in the opening of new stores and the remodeling of existing stores.

    Net cash used in financing activities was $656,000 for the three months
ended April 30, 1995 and $17,365,000 for the three months ended April 30, 1994.
For the three months ended April 30, 1995 these funds were used for the payment
of dividends on preferred and common stock. For the three months ended April 30,
1994 these funds were principally used for the purchase of treasury stock and
the payment of dividends for preferred and common stock.

    As of April 30, 1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $47,218,000 compared with approximately $46,575,000 at April 30,
1994. Since fiscal 1993, the Company has trended toward lower sales and since
fiscal 1991 the Company has trended toward lower earnings and these trends are
continuing into the second quarter of fiscal 1996. There are no known other
trends or commitments, events or other uncertainties that are reasonably likely
to result in the Company's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material
way. The Company believes that internally generated funds will be sufficient to
meet its anticipated capital expenditures, none of which are material, and
current operating needs.

respectively, for fiscal 1995 occurred during the last six months, which
includes the Back-to-School and Christmas selling seasons.
