The former intern, Shahista Lalani, is now a fashion designer. Her suit alleges that she received neither financial remuneration nor college credit when she worked for the Olsens’ fashion line, The Row, in 2012. While she says that the twins themselves were never anything but nice to her, she claims that she should be paid at least minimum wage and overtime for the tasks she performed at The Row.
