     Item 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

          On February 17, 1995, Crystal Brands, Inc. (the "Company"), which
     is operating under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and five of its
     subsidiaries consummated the sale of substantially all of the
     Company's and its subsidiaries' assets (exclusive of cash and cash
     equivalents) to Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation ("PVH") for a cash
     purchase price of $114,700,000, subject to a post-closing adjustment
     based upon the Company's tangible net worth as of the closing date. 
     The purchase price was determined based upon arm's-length negotiations
     between the Company and PVH.  The assets sold comprise Crystal Brands'
     apparel and retail businesses and include its Gant, Izod and Salty Dog
     trademarks.  The Company has no continuing operating businesses.  

          The Company intends to propose a Chapter 11 plan pursuant to
     which it will liquidate its remaining assets and distribute its cash
     to its creditors.  No distributions will be made to its stockholders
     and all outstanding shares of the Company's stock will be cancelled in
     connection with its liquidation.  Accordingly, no pro forma financial
     statements are being filed with this report, and the Company will not
     be filing an Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended
     December 31, 1994.
