ITEM 5.  Other Events

     On  September  29,  1995, AnnTaylor, Inc.  ("Ann  Taylor"),  a
wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  AnnTaylor  Stores  Corporation  (the
"Company"),  entered into an amended and restated credit  agreement
to  replace  its existing bank credit agreement.  The  amended  and
restated  credit  agreement provides, among other  things,  for  an
additional  $25  million  of financing pursuant  to  a  term  loan,
thereby  increasing the amounts available to Ann Taylor  under  the
credit  agreement from $125 million to $150 million.   The  amended
and   restated  credit  agreement  contains  financial  and   other
covenants,  including  limitations  on  indebtedness,   liens   and
investments,  restrictions on dividends or other  distributions  to
stockholders,   and  maintaining  certain  financial   ratios   and
specified  levels  of  net  worth, some of  which  provisions  were
amended  by  the  new agreement.  The amended and  restated  credit
agreement also provides for, among other things, a revised interest
rate  and  the  addition  of a limitation on capital  expenditures.
Ann Taylor's payment obligations under the agreement are guaranteed
by the Company.  The amended and restated bank credit agreement and
related  agreements are incorporated by reference  to  the  Current
Report  on  Form 8-K of Ann Taylor filed on October 17, 1995.   The
foregoing summary of the amended and restated bank credit agreement
and related agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to
such agreements.
