This is a standard form of a poster, which includes the title of the show, date, time, location, artists, website address, brands, sponsors, and a picture at the background.
Then, I made a draft poster using 'Sketchbook' on the iPad.

To brainstorm ideas, I started looking for more exhibitions' posters.

I added a shadow of a girl as her design.

However, I think the first version is too wordy and messy. To make it more organised, I rearrange the text.

I created a new version by looking at Carlos Cruz. See the example below.I added a shadow of a girl as her design.

I researched some textiles fashion shows' poster and get inspirations from them because the previous posters seem to be not successful. The third figure shows a poster of the Cardiff School of Art & Design. I used the idea of how it illustrates images of objects related to textiles, using a digital tool called 'Layout' on my mobile phone. (iPhone 6s)
'Layout', App for editing pictures
I selected the image of my final outcome and used the last layout to create an image combined with squares, which is similar to the poster design by Cardiff School.

The background looks 'messy' because of the textural design on clothes. Therefore, I searched for another poster and referenced the way how it adds text. I used 'Sketchbook' on iPad Pro to draw a white rectangle. Then I change a lower opacity that the audiences can see the text and images underneath at the same time.

Therefore, I created another poster (picture below), using the original colour palette and designed another brand logo specific for this show. It looks better, that the logo is more clear to see and the poster's colours are in relation. This logo matches the colours of the poster now. I think I can add a link of my website at the bottom of this poster that the viewers can access the virtual show on the internet. Also, social media may be necessary, such as blogger. It allows the audience to chase lastest information of the show and know more about the working process or additional information.
Draft of new ideas.

You have posted these but there is not really much commentary I am confused again about your subject area - please be clear if this is a fashion and textile show say so because otherwise the audience will not know that - also you logo and poster colours do not seem to match - I think this needs to be a much cleaner design that actually shows some fashion and textile work that would be in the show!
