MILAN (Reuters) - Sales at Italian luxury group Moncler rose 7% at constant exchange rates in the third quarter, in line with analyst expectations, thanks to growth in Asia and despite a decline in the Americas.

Total sales reached 670 million euros ($705 million) in the July-September period, matching an analyst consensus provided by the company.

($1 = 0.9500 euros)
