SCHEDULE 13G - TO BE INCLUDED IN STATEMENTS
FILED PURSUANT TO RULE 13d-1(b) or 13d-2(b)

	Pursuant to instructions in Item 7 of Schedule 13G, this Exhibit
has been prepared  to identify Fidelity International Limited, Pembroke
Hall, 42 Crow Lane, Hamilton, Bermuda, a Bermudan joint stock company
incorporated for an unlimited duration by private act of the Bermuda
Legislature (FIL) and an investment adviser to various investment
companies (the "International Funds") and certain institutional
investors, as a beneficial owner of the 900 shares or 0.003% of the
Class A Common Stock outstanding of The Neiman-Marcus Group
Incorporated.

	Prior to June 30, 1980, FIL was a majority-owned subsidiary of
Fidelity Management & Research Company (Fidelity), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of FMR Corp.  On that date, the shares of FIL held by
Fidelity were distributed, as a dividend,  to the shareholders of FMR
Corp.  FIL currently operates as an entity independent of FMR Corp. and
Fidelity.  The International Funds and FIL's other clients, with the
exception of Fidelity and an affiliated company of Fidelity, are non-
U.S. entities.

	A partnership controlled by Edward C. Johnson 3d and members of
his family owns shares of FIL voting stock with the right to cast
approximately 39.89% of the total votes which may be cast by all
holders of FIL voting stock.  Mr. Johnson 3d is Chairman of FMR Corp.
and FIL.  FMR Corp. and FIL are separate and independent corporate
entities, and their Boards of Directors are generally composed of
different individuals.  Other than when one serves as a sub adviser to
the other, their investment decisions are made independently, and their
clients are generally different organizations.

	FMR Corp. and FIL are of the view that they are not acting as a
"group" for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "1934" Act) and that they are not otherwise required to
attribute to each other the "beneficial ownership" of securities
"beneficially owned" by the other corporation within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act.  Therefore, they are of the
view that the shares held by the other corporation need not be
aggregated for purposes of Section 13(d). However, FMR Corp. is making
this filing on a voluntary basis as if all of the shares are
beneficially owned by FMR Corp. and FIL on a joint basis.

	FIL may continue to have the International Funds or other
accounts purchase shares subject to a number of factors, including,
among others, the availability of shares for sale at what FIL considers
to be reasonable prices and other investment opportunities that may be
available to the International Funds.

	FIL intends to review continuously the equity position of the
International Funds and other accounts in the Company.  Depending upon
its future evaluations of the business and prospects of the Company and
upon other developments, including, but not limited to, general
economic and business conditions and money market and stock market
conditions, FIL may determine to cease making additional purchases of
shares or to increase or decrease the equity interest in the Company by
acquiring additional shares, or by disposing of all or a portion of the
shares.

	FIL does not have a present plan or proposal which relates to or
would result in (i) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a
merger, reorganization, liquidation, or sale or transfer of a material
amount of assets involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii)
any change in the Company's present Board of Directors or management,
(iii) any material changes in the Company's present capitalization or
dividend policy or any other material change in the Company's business
or corporate structure, (iv) any change in the Company's charter or by-
laws, or (v) the Company's common stock becoming eligible for
termination of its registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the
1934 Act.

	FIL  has sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of  900
shares.
