Online clothes retailer ASOS has reported an interim loss of GBP120,000, despite reporting sales growth of 78%. Although the loss was a result of increased investment in new ranges and greater warehouse capacity in anticipation of the Christmas rush, the company will need to keep a tight rein on its processes to ensure costs do not escalate.

Luxury goods group Mulberry made more profit in the first half of 2005 than it did in the whole of last year, thanks to soaring popularity of its designer bags.

Europe's largest clothing retailer Hennes & Mauritz announced yesterday that it had met its goal of reversing a two-year slide in same-store sales by introducing more tailored garments and designer collections.

Next's trading update for Christmas 2005 is one of the first significant indicators of how British retail fared over Christmas. The fashion retailer's modest turnaround in like-for-like sales has seen Next shares rise to a 12-month high. Yet while the figures look promising, they do not reflect the bigger picture and should not be treated as a reliable barometer for the whole market.

The highly niche socks and hosiery retailer Sock Shop has collapsed for the third and possibly last time in its short 22-year history. There is little demand for the product and time-poor consumers are more likely to buy socks with their groceries than make a trip to the specialist retailer.

Although Primark has gradually been reaching a wider audience, there is still room for it to expand on the high street. The discount retailer's extensive store opening program - which will be crowned by the opening of a flagship store on Oxford Street in March 2007 - is certain about to guarantee its status as a major high street name.

Philip Green, the owner of Arcadia, is reported to be in the process of creating a new fashion accessories chain called Muse. The store will be pitched as more upmarket than the Claire's Accessories chain, with a more 'edgy' feel than Accessorize. Mr Green has spotted a credible gap in the market and should have time benefit from it before the discounters pile in.

Phoenix Equity Partners has bought a 50% stake in Radley in a GBP45 million deal that will see the handbag firm, which currently trades through department stores, develop its own retail chain. Phoenix is keen for the brand to expand in the US and Japan, but it will need to invest heavily brand building if Radley is to achieve the same level of kudos as Jimmy Choo.
