After 40 years in corporate America, Harris created a high-demand clutch purse collection. With a keen eye for detail and drive for entrepreneurship, Dorothy set out to establish a classic clutch line for the everyday woman looking to add flair to their wardrobe. “Once I retired, I dedicated time to perfecting my sewing craft and ensured that all designs were unique and dual purposed for women”, said Dorothy Harris founder of J. Harris Designs. The company quickly gained credibility with reputable storefronts throughout the Southeastern region and has expanded to an all-women team of seamstresses within its first year of conception. J.

Harris Designs a unique opportunity to share its story and designs with viewers across the nation. “Our unique story captivated the judges. They were intrigued by my mother fearlessly entering the fashion industry as a 69-year-old that actually designs these quality clutch purses”, said Blair Armstrong, co-owner of J. Harris Designs. The line offers two collections featuring vegan and high-end classic clutches. Each clutch purse is adorned with the signature J.Harris Designs tassel or charm and features handpicked ornate skins and textiles from across the world. “Our journey has helped us to believe wholeheartedly in our abilities.
