The group said total sales rose 5 per cent to£168 million during the period, and 1 per cent on a like-for-like basis.
Growth varied by region, with solid gains made in both the US and European markets. The UK improved marginally. In Asia, Korea notched up a modest increase, while Hong Kong continued to experience strong growth.
Burberry chief executive Rose Marie Bravo said: 'In this retail-dominated quarter, we were pleased with the results for the all-important holiday period. The business was led by our core outerwear and reinvigorated classics. At the same time, the favourable initial response to early spring deliveries across all categories provides a good start to Burberry's 150th year.'
