EXPLANATORY NOTE
PVH Corp. (the “Registrant” or “PVH”) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (the “Prior Registration Statements”):
The Registrant filed with the SEC its Registration Statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 333-143921, on June 20, 2007 (the “2007 Registration Statement”) pursuant to which it registered 3,991,167 shares of its Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), to be offered and sold under its Stock Incentive Plan (formerly known as the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan) (the “Plan”). Pursuant to the Plan, any shares of Common Stock that were available to be issued under a Prior Plan (as defined below) as of the date of the Plan’s approval by the Registrant’s stockholders or thereafter became available under a Prior Plan because of expirations, cancellations and terminations of outstanding stock option awards, were to be assigned to, and made available for issuance under, the Plan. Accordingly, the shares registered pursuant to the 2007 Registration Statement included 991,167 shares of Common Stock that were previously available for grant (i.e., not subject to outstanding awards) under the Registrant’s 1997 Stock Option Plan, 2000 Stock Option Plan and 2003 Stock Option Plan (each, a “Prior Plan” and collectively, the “Prior Plans”) as of June 13, 2006 and shares of Common Stock underlying grants under the Prior Plans that were outstanding on June 13, 2006 but which expired, were terminated or were cancelled between June 13, 2006 and June 18, 2007. (Such 991,167 shares had been previously registered under Registration Statements on Form S-8 (Registration Nos. 333-109000, 333-29765 and 333-41068) relating to the offer and sale of shares of Common Stock issuable under the Prior Plans and were subject to Post-Effective Amendments thereto filed on June 20, 2007 deregistering such shares thereunder.)

(Such 11,387 shares had been previously registered under the Registration Statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 333-109000, relating to the offer and sale of shares of Common Stock issuable under Registrant’s 2003 Stock Option Plan and were subject to a Post-Effective Amendment thereto filed on June 26, 2008 deregistering such shares thereunder.)

(Such 72,397 shares had been previously registered under the Registration Statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 333-41068, relating to the offer and sale of shares of Common Stock issued under Registrant’s 2000 Stock Option Plan, or Registration Statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 333-109000, relating to the offer and sale of shares of Common Stock issuable under Registrant’s 2003 Stock Option Plan, and were subject to Post-Effective Amendments thereto filed on July 1, 2009 deregistering such shares thereunder.)

(Such 3,050 shares had been previously registered under the Registration Statement on Form S-8, Registration No. 333-109000, relating to the offer and sale of shares of Common Stock issued under Registrant’s 2003 Stock Option Plan, and were subject to a Post-Effective Amendment thereto filed on September 8, 2012 deregistering such shares thereunder.)

Gentlemen:
I refer to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) filed on even date by PVH Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the registration of up to an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Common Stock”), to be issued in connection with the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
I have made such examination as I have deemed necessary for the purpose of this opinion.  Based upon such examination, it is my opinion, that, when the Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and when the shares of Common Stock to be issued are sold and paid for in the manner described in the Plan, the Common Stock so issued will have been validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
My opinion is limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.  This opinion is given as of the date hereof and I assume no obligation to advise you of changes that may hereafter be brought to my attention.
I hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,

/s/ Mark D. Fischer
