Schedule 13D/A		Page 6 of 13 Pages
Tarrant Apparel Group

This Schedule 13D Amendment No. 1 (this “Schedule 13D/A”) amends the Schedule 13D of Gerard Guez (“Guez”) and Todd Kay (“Kay”), as filed with the SEC and dated April 28, 2008 (the “Original Schedule 13D”).

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This Schedule 13D/A relates to the common stock, no par value (the “Common Stock”), of Tarrant Apparel Group, a California corporation (the “Company”), which has its principal executive offices at 801 South Figueroa Street, Suite 2500, Los Angeles, California 90017.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

(a) This Schedule 13D/A is being filed by Guez, Kay, Sunrise Acquisition Company, LLC, a California limited liability company owned by Guez and Kay (“Parent”), and Sunrise Merger Company, a California corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub” and, collectively with Guez, Kay and Parent , the “Reporting Persons”). The Reporting Persons are filing this Statement because they may be deemed to be a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), with respect to the transactions described in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D/A. Except as expressly set forth in this Schedule 13D/A, each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by any other Reporting Person.

(b) The principal business address of each Guez, Parent and Merger Sub is 9000 Sunset Boulevard, Penthouse, Los Angeles, CA 90069. The principal business address of Kay is c/o Tarrant Apparel Group, 801 South Figueroa Street, Suite 2500, Los Angeles, California 90017.

(c) The present principal occupation of Guez is Chairman and Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The present principal occupation of Kay is Vice Chairman of the Company.

Parent and Merger Sub have no operating history, and were formed by Guez and Kay for the sole purpose of consummating the transactions described in Item 4 below. Guez and Kay are the sole members of Parent holding 100% of its outstanding membership interests, and Guez and Kay are the co-managers of Parent. Parent is the sole shareholder of Merger Sub, and Guez is the sole director of Merger Sub and the sole officer of Merger Sub, serving as its President, Secretary and Chief Financial Officer.

(d) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).

(e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding, was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) Each of the Guez and Kay is a citizen of the United States of America. Parent is a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of California. Merger Sub is a corporation formed under the laws of the State of California.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Information set forth in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D/A is hereby incorporated in this Item 3 by reference.

In connection with the transactions described in Item 4, the Reporting Persons estimate that the total amount of funds necessary to acquire all of the Common Stock not currently owned by the Reporting Persons in the Merger (as defined in Item 4), settle outstanding options with an exercise price less than the Merger Consideration (as defined in Item 4), if any, and pay estimated fees and expenses will be approximately $16 million. The Reporting Persons anticipate that Guez will fund 100% of this amount from his personal funds, which he intends to loan to Parent prior to the closing of the Merger.

To the extent any amounts are due or may be paid by the Reporting Persons or the surviving corporation in connection with any such financing following the consummation of the Merger (for example, funds necessary to consummate the Merger and certain transaction fees and expenses), such funds may be paid from generally available working capital of the surviving corporation.

Guez and Kay have entered into the Guarantee (as defined in Item 4 below) described in Item 4 below, pursuant to which they have agreed to guarantee all payment obligations of Parent and Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement (as defined in Item 4 below) and certain related costs and expenses.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

As previously reported, on April 25, 2008, Guez and Kay submitted a non-binding proposal (the “Proposal”) for a going-private transaction to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”). A copy of the Proposal is filed herewith as Exhibit 7.02 and incorporated in this Item 4 by reference. On April 25, 2008, the Board of Directors formed a special committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) to consider the terms and conditions of the Proposal and to recommend to the Board of Directors whether to approve the Proposal. In connection with the Proposal, on April 28, 2008, the Company issued a press release. The text of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 7.03 and incorporated in this Item 4 by reference.

On February 12, 2009, the Company entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 12, 2009 (the “Merger Agreement”), with the Reporting Persons. A copy of the Merger Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 7.11 and incorporated in this Item 4 by reference. On February 12, 2009, the Company issued a press release announcing the Merger Agreement. The text of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 7.14 and incorporated in this Item 4 by reference.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”). In the Merger, each share of common stock of the Company (including the associated preferred stock purchase rights), other than those held by the Company, any subsidiary of the Company, Parent, or Merger Sub, and other than those shares with respect to which dissenters rights are properly exercised, will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $0.85 per share in cash (the “Merger Consideration”). All of the Company’s options to purchase shares of common stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, whether vested or unvested, will be canceled in the Merger, and each holder of a stock option that has a per share exercise price that is less than $0.85 will be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of common stock as to which the stock options that are cancelled could be exercised (assuming full vesting), multiplied by (B)(i) $0.85 less (ii) the per share exercise price of such stock options. Any stock option that is outstanding immediately prior


Schedule 13D/A		Page 8 of 13 Pages
Tarrant Apparel Group

to the effective time of the Merger and that has a per share exercise price equal to or greater than $0.85, will be cancelled in the Merger without any payment or continuing liability of the Company or the surviving corporation in respect to such option. Each warrant issued and outstanding at the effective time of the Merger, and which does not terminate in accordance with its terms as a consequence of the Merger, will be canceled and automatically converted into the right to receive cash, if any, without interest, in an amount determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable warrant agreement.

The consummation of the Merger and the obligations of the parties to the Merger Agreement remain subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including approval of the Merger by existing shareholders of the Company and other customary closing conditions.

The description of the Merger Agreement set forth in this Item 4 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Guez and Kay (including Kay in his capacity as Co-Trustee of the Kay Living Trust) entered into an Equity Rollover Agreement (the “Equity Rollover Agreement”) with Parent pursuant to which, among other things, they agreed to contribute, immediately before but substantially contemporaneously with the effective time of the Merger, all of their respective shares of the Company’s common stock owned by them to Parent, in the aggregate amount of 12,679,083 shares of the Company’s common stock, in exchange for membership interests of Parent. A copy of the Equity Rollover Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 7.12 and incorporated in this Item 4 by reference. Each of Guez and Kay’s (including Kay’s in his capacity as Co-Trustee of the Kay Living Trust) obligations under the Equity Rollover Agreement are contingent upon: (i) satisfaction or waiver by Parent of the mutual conditions to the closing of the Merger and satisfaction or valid waiver of the conditions to the obligations of Parent and Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement; (ii) the terms of the Equity Rollover Agreement; and (iii) the filing of the agreement of merger with the California Secretary of State.

The description of the Equity Rollover Agreement set forth in this Item 4 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Equity Rollover Agreement.

Also, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Guez and Kay entered into a Limited Joint and Several Guarantee (the “Guarantee”) in favor of the Company pursuant to which they have jointly and severally agreed to guarantee to the Company the performance and discharge of all payment obligations of the Parent and the Merger Sub (the “Obligations”) under the Merger Agreement and certain related costs and expenses as described in the following sentence, subject, in the case of Kay, to a maximum liability of $5,000,000 plus any costs or expenses incurred to enforce Kay’s obligations under the Guarantee. A copy of the Guarantee is filed herewith as Exhibit 7.13 and incorporated in this Item 4 by reference. The Obligations guaranteed pursuant to the Guarantee include: (i) payment of the aggregate Merger Consideration and all payments with respect to any “in the money” options and warrants under the Merger Agreement; (ii) payment of $500,000 plus all expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Merger (the “Business Interruption Fee”) to the extent such amounts become payable to the Company in connection with a termination of the Merger Agreement; (iii) any payment obligation of the Parent or Merger Sub resulting from or arising out of the breach or non-performance of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Reporting Persons; and (iv) any costs of enforcement or collection of the Merger Agreement, the Obligations or the Guarantee (including reasonable attorneys fees and costs) that are incurred by or on behalf of the Company.

The Guarantee provides for enforcement by the Special Committee. The Guarantee will terminate upon the occurrence of certain events, all as provided in the Guarantee. The description of the


Schedule 13D/A		Page 9 of 13 Pages
Tarrant Apparel Group

Guarantee set forth in this Item 4 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Guarantee.

The Reporting Persons beneficially own approximately 48.3% of the total outstanding votes of the Common Stock entitled to vote on the Merger as a single class (including in such percentage calculation 4,000,000 shares that may be acquired upon the exercise of stock options at a weighted average exercise price of $4.58 per share), and intend to vote for the Merger and will not agree to any other transaction involving their stake in the Company.

Following the consummation of the Merger, the Company will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent and its shares of Common Stock will be delisted from The Nasdaq Global Market and will become eligible for deregistration under Section 12(g)(4) of the Act. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the board of directors of Merger Sub at the effective time of the Merger will become the board of directors of the Company and the officers of the Company will continue as its officers. Also at the effective time of the Merger, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company will be amended and restated as provided in the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing is intended for informational purposes only and is not a solicitation of proxies in connection with the Merger. Solicitation of proxies to approve the Merger will be made only pursuant to a proxy statement and related materials. Shareholders should read the Company’s proxy statement and other relevant documents regarding the Merger filed with the SEC when they become available because they will contain important information relevant to the decision to approve the Merger. Shareholders will be able to receive these documents (when they become available), as well as other documents filed by the Reporting Persons with respect to the Merger, free of charge at the SEC’s web site, www.sec.gov.

Other than the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the events set forth in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D. However, if the Merger is not consummated for any reason, the Reporting Persons intend to review continuously the Company’s business affairs, capital needs and general industry and economic conditions, and, based on such review, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time, determine to increase their ownership of Common Stock, approve an extraordinary corporate transaction with regard to the Company or engage in any of the events set forth in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D, except that the Reporting Persons currently have no intention of selling any shares of Common Stock.

The information set forth in response to this Item 4 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, the Equity Rollover Agreement and the Guarantee, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.
