VERNON, CA - (BUSINESS WIRE)--July 8, 1999--The Sirena Apparel Group, Inc.
(Nasdaq:SIRNQ) today announced that its common stock will be delisted from The
Nasdaq Stock Market, effective at the close of business on July 9, 1999. Sirena,
which filed a petition for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code on June 25, 1999, no longer meets The Nasdaq Stock Market

common stock on June 8, 1999. In light of its condition, the Company does not
currently intend to list its common stock on any other trading market.
The Company is a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of branded and
private-label swimwear, intimate apparel and resortwear under well-recognized
brands that include Anne Klein, Liz Claiborne, Elisabeth, Sirena, Rose Marie

looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Act
of 1995. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in any
forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no
assurance that its expectations will be attained. Factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations include the
findings of the Special Committee appointed to review the Company's accounting

connection therewith, Sirena's ability to implement its strategic business plan
as well as appropriate financial and operational controls, the ability to
maintain existing licenses and obtain new licenses, the continued ability to
