Carrie LaFrenz

The wealthy retailing family behind women’s fashion brands including Cue Clothing, Veronika Maine and Dion Lee are at war, with former executive director Justin Levis suing his parents over their succession plans.

Levis is accusing his parents, Rod and Lynette, of cutting him out of the business after the collapse of Dion Lee, an apparel brand founded by its eponymous designer. Dion Lee fell into administration in May after surviving for two years off a $20 million loan from the Levis family.
