The designer worked in fashion and home decor throughout his extensive career.
Tomchin’s talent was described by WWD as an “endless variety of colored forms, mirroring each other and giving off light.” Simultaneously creating fashion textiles and home decor customized for each client served him well, allowing Tomchin to sharpen his own sense of design. Simply put, he understood there was a direct relation between the two.
Beyond the rise and fall of hemlines, Tomchin routinely discussed where fashion was headed, as well as when and why that was happening, according to Herman. “Julian could weigh where we were going and intellectualize it in a way that was always shocking to me,” Herman said. “He was a tough cookie, but I liked that part about him.”
For nearly the past 20 years, Tomchin ran his own design company from San Francisco working with Macy’s West, Natori Home and the Crane & Canopy site. Prior to that, he worked at Macy’s West for nine years, and further back Fieldcrest Cannon for more than four years. But the New York crowd remembers Tomchin for his decade-long run as the senior vice president and design director for the home division at Bloomingdale’s.
Tomchin believed that fantasy was the bridge between one reality and another. In a 1969 interview with WWD, he bemoaned the fact that fantasy was not running rampant in design schools. From his viewpoint, schools were too concerned with professionalism. He also pined away for the time when “it was a great gag what kids did at Parsons,” recalling how Weinberg once crafted a very elaborate coat and “gored the hell out of it.
