You don’t need to make a text frame for each element.
From your sample layout you need three frames, 2 text frames (firts one with one column and the second with three columns) and 1 image frame.
The two text frame need to be threaded so the text will flow.
Make the styles follow each other in the correct order eg PATTERN TITLE follow by PATTERN NAME followed by DESIGNER NAME etc.
You will need to make an extra couple of styles to ensure the text will sit correctly, eg two different DESCRIPTION TITLE styles.
The reason for the two similar styles is when you want the text to move the the new text frame for column put lot of of SPACE BEFORE in the style, this can be 100pt try it it works,
Then the styles will come in the follow correctly, no need for lots of messy text boxes for each piece of text.
