MILAN--Prada said on Wednesday that its preliminary sales for 2015 were flat compared with the previous year at 3.5 billion euros ($3.9 billion), hampered by China's slowing economy and a strong U.S. dollar.

The Italian fashion company, listed in Hong Kong, said that sales in the Asia-Pacific region fell 4% compared with the previous year at current exchange rates and 16% at constant exchange rates.

Sales in the American market decreased 9% in real terms because of the significant strengthening of the U.S. dollar which affected the number of tourists to the region, the company said.

European sales, on the other hand, rose 6% at current exchange rates, because of a steady stream of tourists.
