Oscar de la Renta snubs adopted son in will

[Street Knowledge]

Late fashion

Late fashion designer Oscar de la Renta has snubbed his adopted son - a designer at his label - in his $26 million will after the pair fell out 10 years ago.

Moises de la Renta was adopted by the couturier from an orphanage in the Dominican Republic following the death of his first wife Françoise de Langlade in 1983.

Moises, 30, has now been left a relatively small bequest from his late father's $26 million estate - and has been warned that if he ever tried to contest the will he would be cut out completely, court documents show.

The pair fell out after Moises attempted to launch his own women's fashion line in 2005.

His father, who is considered one of the most iconic designers of all time and dressed everyone from Jackey Kennedy Onassis to Amal Clooney, never forgave him for the move, Page Six reports.

De la Renta died on October 20 last year at his Connecticut home at the age of 82, following a battle with cancer.

In 1989, the designer married Annette Engelhard and became a stepfather to her three children, Beatrice Phelps, Eliza Bolen and Charles Reed.

His son-in-law Alex Bolen operates as Chief Executive Officer, and step-daughter Eliza Bolen serves as Vice President of Licensing, at Oscar de la Renta, LLC.

He left the majority of his estate to his wife and court papers show his will was signed several weeks before his death.

Annette de la Renta was bequeathed the majority of her husband's real estate portfolio, including a $13million Park Avenue apartment in New York, a $2.8million house in Kent, Connecticut and his estate in Dominica.

The rest of his will has been put in a trust to be split between his wife, her three children and Moises.

Damn, I would have thought that a fashion legend like Oscar de la Renta had much more money & assets left in his will than just 26 million.

Not really, he probably wanted his own shyt and not be up under his adopted father to make money. The fall out is because now his Dominican son who came from nothing before the adoption would have his own brand and have something to pass along to his children of color. Oscar was really mad with himself for empowering a person of color that's really the issue.

As men we should be happy when our son was to expand and start his own brand. The dude stayed under pops and soaked the game up and wants to shine. His pops probably knew how talented jr was and thought he was a threat. SMH.. old ass worried about petty shyt

That was the first thing I was thinking when I read this article. Most men don't mind their offspring being in the same line of work as them, it's a boost to their ego. I wonder how Dell Curry and Michael Thompson feel seeing their seeds doing the same things they did except better knowing Dad was a integral reason why.

I can promise you this beef wouldn't exist if he his biological kids started a brand.

Shut up faggit. He tried to start the exact same kind of business as his dad even after his pops tells him to cut that shyt out. Dumbass should of opened up a gas station or some shyt
