British online fashion retailer Boohoo said on Thursday it had appointed Tim Morris as its independent chair with immediate effect, replacing Mahmud Kamani.

In a separate statement, Frasers, Boohoo's top investor, called for a shareholders' meeting to remove Kamani as a director of the company, and appoint its owner Mike Ashley and Mike Lennon as directors.

Boohoo also said Kamani will become executive vice-chair with immediate effect.

Denmark's Pandora , the world's biggest jewellery maker, said on Wednesday it now expects operating profit growth this year at the upper end of its forecasted range while it reported quarterly operating profit a tad below forecasts.

"We are very pleased with our strong results this quarter, particularly in the context of the current macroeconomic backdrop," CEO Alexander Lacik said in a statement.

Operating profit rose to 980 million Danish crowns ($140.87 million) in the third quarter from 920 million a year earlier, slightly below the forecast of 991 million in a company-compiled poll.

Pandora said it now expects full-year organic operating profit growth of between 11% and 12% compared to its previously guided range of 9-12%. The company also raised its outlook in May and August.

It still expects an operating margin this year of around 25%.
