It should be inspired by her current album artwork of the related album: 'A perfect contradiction'.
First thing that can be noticed about the album artwork of 'A perfect contradiction' is that it is heavily inspired by baroque paintings and fashion, and is a parody of Caravaggio's 'Entombment of Christ':
The number on the hotel door is

Caravaggio's 'Entombment of Christ' |
Some other Baroque style artwork:
Very dramatic lighting and beams of light are the key features I can see to this artwork for the disctinctive style.
I then got onto Baroque style architecture:
The key features in these designs is the different sections segmented by different shapes, framed in gold. The distinctive patterns and colours are easily transferrable into a graphic design for a 4:3 aspect ratio in a poster.
Visuals from Paloma's website in relation to the album:
The red door seems to bear a lot of significance in the current artwork. I have observed that on the album cover the hotel room door reads '8734' which may be a cool detail to include in the final design.
The colours of dark maroon, bright red, teal and gold are all very royal and baroque in style, and I should be sure to use them in the final design.
Lots of the symbols shown on the website can be incorporated into the final design to tie in the album artwork to the souvenir poster.
Observing the colours and shapes used here...
The dramatic clouding illustrations inspired by baroque paintings above can be seen on her website too, which is a feature I think I should include.
Even though I have established the style used as Baroque, it also uses elements of Art Nouveau in the typeface choice and 1950's in the styling of Paloma herself.
I would like to use typefaces that don't contradict the logo itself
Potential lettering to use:
'Desire' typeface
