About Us
Hi, I’m Josephine Harrington, and I’m so glad you’ve discovered my little corner of the world — welcome to James & Morgan Toronto.
This is not just a fashion label. It’s my personal tribute to timeless simplicity, quiet strength, and the kind of craftsmanship you can feel the moment you slip into one of our pieces. Let me share with you the story behind James & Morgan Toronto.
How It All Began
It was a crisp fall afternoon in Toronto when the idea for James & Morgan first came to life in 2011. I had just turned 45, carrying years of life experience and a deep desire to create a brand that truly spoke to me — and to women of my generation.
My townhouse near the Charles River, surrounded by Toronto’s historic charm and New England’s natural beauty, became both my sanctuary and my inspiration. I saw women around me — women who took themselves and their style seriously — searching for something real: clothing that felt authentic, effortless, and sophisticated. Pieces that didn’t just look beautiful, but stayed true to who you are.
The Heart Behind James & Morgan
James & Morgan is my passion project, born from the belief that fashion is more than passing trends or fast consumption. It’s a way for women to shine — without excess, with clothing that grows with you, year after year.
The name carries deep meaning. “James & Morgan” is inspired by my own family and the enduring values they instilled in me: strength, resilience, and honesty. Combined with Toronto — my beloved city — the brand reflects everything I stand for: authenticity, timeless elegance, and pure simplicity.
Every collection is infused with the spirit of New England — the soft light, the deep ocean tones, and the quiet strength of our history and culture.
A Journey of Quality and Trust
When I started in 2011, I didn’t have a big budget or hype behind me — just a clear vision. My focus was always on the finest materials, perfect fits, and subtle details that reveal the care and love sewn into each garment.
Today, I am grateful for the community we’ve built: women who, just like me, choose timeless pieces of true quality — guided not by trends, but by their own sense of style.
Why James & Morgan Toronto?
Because this isn’t about fast fashion. It’s about how clothing makes you feel. Our designs are made to move with you — through busy workdays, quiet afternoons, and relaxed evenings.
Whether it’s a soft knit sweater that embraces you, a tailored jacket that shields you from the Toronto chill, or a dress that makes you feel elegant and confident — every piece tells a story of care, origin, and simplicity.
Thank you for being here. When you choose James & Morgan Toronto, you’re not just buying clothes — you’re becoming part of a story of timeless style, trust, and Canadian authenticity.
With love,
Josephine Harrington
