                     BISCAYNE APPAREL, INC.
           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
       statements, which are for an interim period, do not include
       all disclosures provided in the annual consolidated
       financial statements.  These unaudited consolidated
       financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
       consolidated financial statements and the footnotes with
       respect thereto contained in the Biscayne Apparel, Inc.,
       ("the Company") 1994 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

       The consolidated financial statements of the Company include
       the accounts of the parent company, and its wholly-owned
       subsidiaries, Biscayne Apparel International, Inc. ("BAII"),
       Scientific Products Inc. ("SPI") and M&L International, Inc.
       ("M&L"), which was acquired in 1994, and its wholly-owned
       subsidiaries, Unidex Garments (Philippines), Inc.,
       Watersports Garment Manufacturing, Inc., Teri Outerwear
       Manufacturing, Inc., GES Sportswear Manufacturing Corp. and
       M&L International (H.K.) Limited.  BAII operates through two
       divisions, Andy Johns Fashions International ("Andy Johns")
       and Varon, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mackintosh of
       New England Co. and Mackintosh (U.K.) Limited.  The Company
       holds a 20% interest in Hartwell Sports, Inc. and accounts
       for investments in less than 50% owned affiliates, over
       which it exercises significant influence, under the equity
       method in accordance with Accounting Principle Board Opinion
       No. 18.  All material intercompany balances and transactions
       have been eliminated.  Certain amounts included in prior
       period financial statements have been reclassified to
       conform with the 1995 presentation.

2.     In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited
       consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
       (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for
       a fair presentation of the financial statements.

3.     The results of operations for the three month period ended
       March 31, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily indicative of
       the results to be expected for the full year.

4.     Earnings per common share is based on the weighted average
       number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding
       during the period.  Common stock equivalents include
       incremental shares from the exercise of stock options and
       warrants under the treasury stock method.  

5.     Included in accounts payable at March 31, 1995 and March 31,
       1994, are the Company's obligations under outstanding
       letters of credit of $947,000 and $778,000, respectively.



6.     On March 10, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors declared
       a five percent stock dividend with respect to the Company's
       Common Stock par value, $0.01 ("Common Stock").  Each holder
       of record on May 24, 1995 is entitled to receive one share
       of Common Stock for every 20 shares held.  Cash will be paid
       in lieu of issuing fractional shares at a price of $2.125
       per share, the closing price of the Common Stock on March
       10, 1995.  The distribution date is May 31, 1995.

7.     On November 30, 1994, the Company acquired M&L, a Chicago-
       based designer, manufacturer and marketer of infants',
       toddlers' and children's outerwear, sportswear, and
       swimwear.  
       The following unaudited pro forma combined financial data
       reflects the results of the Company and M&L as if the
       Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1994 (in thousands,
       except per share data):

8.     At December 31, 1994, the Company had a $32,000,000
       uncommitted credit agreement (the "BAI Agreement") with
       several commercial banks.  The BAI Agreement was
       collateralized by substantially all of the Company's trade
       accounts receivable and imported finished goods inventory,
       a first mortgage on Varon's real property, and was
       guaranteed by the Company.  Under the BAI Agreement, the
       Company was restricted from making any cash dividend
       payments.  The BAI Agreement was to expire on April 30,
       1995, but was paid off on March 16, 1995 with proceeds from
       the Revolver Agreement (see below).
       
       In connection with the acquisition of M&L, M&L entered into
       a three year $23,000,000 committed revolver credit agreement
       with a bank ("The M&L Agreement"), which the Company
       guaranteed.  The M&L Agreement was collateralized by
       substantially all of M&L's assets including accounts
       receivable, inventories, excess cash deposited in a cash
       collateral account and equipment.  The M&L Agreement
       required specified levels of working capital, minimum
       compensating cash balances of $650,000 and compliance with
       various financial ratios.  The M&L Agreement also restricted
       capital expenditures, leases, other borrowings, cash
       dividends and other items.  The M&L Agreement was to expire
       December 31, 1997.  The M&L Agreement was paid off on March
       16, 1995 with proceeds from the Revolver Agreement (see
       below).

       On March 16, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement
       with several banks for a $56,000,000 two year committed
       revolving credit facility (the "Revolver Agreement") and a
       $7,500,000 four year term loan (the "Term Loan"), which
       replaced the existing BAI Agreement and the M&L Agreement,
       and was used to repay debt and other related costs
       associated with the M&L acquisition.

       The Revolver Agreement and the Term Loan are collateralized
       by all of the Company's assets, excluding domestic
       inventory, and including all trademarks.  Additionally, the
       Revolver Agreement and the Term Loan require various
       financial covenants and reporting requirements and limit
       capital expenditures, cash dividends, other indebtedness,
       affiliate transactions, mergers and acquisitions and other
       items.


Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended March 31, 1995 versus Quarter Ended March 31, 1994:

Net sales for the first quarter of 1995 increased to $15,389,000 
from first quarter 1994 net sales of $6,547,000.  The increase is
mainly attributable to the addition of M&L, which was acquired on
November 30, 1994.  

Consolidated sales backlog at April 30, 1995 were $51,040,000,
compared to $66,725,000 at April 30, 1994.  This decrease is due to
the extremely warm winter experienced last year causing both
outerwear manufacturers and retailers to carryover increased levels
of inventory into 1995.  The result is that retailers are
hesitating to place orders for Fall 1995 outerwear products as
evidenced by the Company's largest 1994 customer placing orders of
only $342,000, as of April 30, 1995, compared to $11,580,000 as of
April 30, 1994.  However, the Company's underwear, daywear and
sportswear operations reflect a sales backlog of $14,684,000 at
April 30, 1995, which exceeds the April 30, 1994 sales backlog of
$10,636,000 by 38%.

Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, was 75% versus
79% for the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
The decrease is attributable to the addition of M&L in 1995 and
Andy Johns and Mackintosh realizing higher selling prices in 1995. 

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("S,G&A"), as a
percentage of net sales, decreased from 47% for the first quarter
of 1994 to 39% in the first quarter of 1995, resulting primarily
from the addition of M&L in 1995, increased sales on fixed S,G&A
expenses and management's efforts to control these costs.

Other

Interest and other expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1995
increased $374,000 from the comparable quarter of 1994.  The
increase is primarily due to increased borrowings incurred in
connection with the acquisition of M&L and increased bank interest
rates.

Interest and other income decreased by $6,000 in the first quarter
of 1995, compared with the first quarter of 1994 due to lower cash
balances invested.







Income Taxes

For the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, the income tax
benefit was greater than the provision which would be derived upon
application of the federal statutory rate, primarily because of
state income tax provisions, non-taxable interest income and non-
deductible amortization of goodwill.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $2,624,000 and $4,178,000 at March
31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively.  At March 31, 1995,
the Company's working capital was $24,293,000, representing a
current ratio of 2.2:1.  This compares to working capital of
$22,295,000 and a current ratio of 1.85:1 at December 31, 1994. 
The increase in the working capital ratio is due to the repayment
of short-term subordinated debt with long-term bank borrowings. 
The decrease in cash on hand is largely due to the Company reducing
short-term outstanding bank borrowings.

As presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the
three months ended March 31, 1995, the decrease in accounts
receivable of $11,432,000 and the increase in inventories of
$8,059,000 are due to the seasonality of the Company's operations.
The net increase in cash from financing activities of $1,718,000 is
due to the Company's seasonality and the refinancing of debt, as
discussed below.

At December 31, 1994, the Company had a $32,000,000 uncommitted
credit agreement (the "BAI Agreement") with several commercial
banks.  The BAI Agreement was to expire on April 30, 1995, but was
paid off on March 16, 1995 with proceeds from the Revolver
Agreement, as discussed below.

In connection with the acquisition of M&L, M&L entered into a three
year $23,000,000 committed revolver credit agreement with a bank
("The M&L Agreement"), which the Company guaranteed.  The M&L
Agreement was to expire December 31, 1997 but was paid off on March
16, 1995 with proceeds from the Revolver Agreement, as discussed
below.

On March 16, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with
several banks for a $56,000,000 two year committed revolving credit
facility (the "Revolver Agreement"), and a $7,500,000 four year
term loan (the "Term Loan"), which replaced the existing BAI
Agreement and the M&L Agreement, and was used to repay debt and
other related costs associated with the M&L acquisition.

Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 1995
decreased to $422,000 from $550,000 in 1994.  The decrease is
primarily due to the 1994 expansion of Varon's Arlington, Georgia
facility, offset by increases as a result of the addition of M&L.


In March 1994, the Company purchased, for $1,500,000, a 20%
interest in Hartwell Sports, Inc., a manufacturer of casual shirts
and jackets.  The purchase and subsequent accounting for the
investment is being recorded under the equity method in accordance
with Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 18.

The Company expects that cash on hand, investments in short-term
securities, investment income, cash from operations and borrowings
under its credit agreement will be sufficient to fund current
operations and to enable the Company to meet its obligations as
they become due.

Effect of Inflation and Seasonality

The Company believes that inflation will not significantly effect
its profit margins or have a material effect on the prices of other
goods and services used in its business operations.

Sales of women's and children's outerwear and children's thermal
underwear are seasonal.  Historically, Andy Johns, Mackintosh,
Varon and M&L have significantly higher revenues in the third and
fourth quarters than in the first and second quarters.  Therefore,
the results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
the results which might be expected during a full year.
