Overview

• A summons filed Aug. 8 in New York State Supreme Court seeks at least $10 million in damages plus legal fees and costs.
• Filings assert Thomas diverted money and opportunities from their Deux Femmes Noires venture into MT LLC and underpaid Chevremont from 2012 to 2022.
• Chevremont alleges she faced a hostile workplace, was pressed to rekindle a relationship after their 2020 split, and was terminated when she refused.
• The dispute follows years of collaboration, including a 2021 agreement and multimillion-dollar deals Chevremont says she negotiated.
• Representatives for both sides have not commented, and Thomas is expected to respond within weeks as the litigation proceeds.
