Sales in the UK, our largest market, are up 8.1% whilst brand sales overseas are up 10.1% in reportable currency and up 12.0% in constant currency. Our Anthology brand, which was designed primarily for export markets, has made a significant contribution to our overseas growth.

"In the US, where we completed the extension of our New York showroom last year, sales are up 27.1% in reportable currency and 16.1% in constant currency in the first four-and-a-half months, making this our second largest market. We continue to see significant potential throughout the US.
