Our Story
Thousands of pattern samples from 1850 - 1980 covering every style of pattern from florals to tapestries. Inspiration for fashion and home brands to create innovative & ideas & collections.
The Print Pattern Archive was originally collected by Marlene Goldstein which was then housed in the fashion districts of New York for over 30 years. At this time, the Print Pattern Archive provided inspiration to New York top brands such as Ralph Lauren, Donna Karen and Victoria's Secret. In 1997, talented young designer Cheryl was fortunate enough to gain employment with Marlene at the Print Pattern Archive. She worked setting up the New York design studio for two years until she had to return back to England.
'It was like a dream come true to be able to explore this beautiful and unique historical archive and set up this exciting new design studio. As a young designer I was so excited and inspired. I was like a child in a sweet shop!' Cheryl
Twenty years later, in an unexpected turn, Marlene contacted Cheryl and asked her if she would like to take over and house the Print Pattern Archive in England. Much to Cheryl's surprise, Marlene gifted Cheryl the Print Pattern Archive as a thank you for all of her work and drive back in 1998, which was a challenging time for Marlene. Marlene knew that only Cheryl loved and understood the Print Pattern Archive as she had and wanted Cheryl to have The Print Pattern Archive and breathe new life into it.
