I was looking online, and I noticed that Azure Fang & Breeze Dancer seem to have different outfits in some earlier artworks that don't seem to be used in-game. I wonder if these were beta designs?

Breeze has more makeup, different eyebrows, a different corset (or whatever that thing in the middle of her outfit is) & a belt instead of a rope.
Meanwhile Azure has different pants, a different belt, her shirt's straps are crossed (and one of them is the same color as the majority of her shirt), bandages on her arms (shortening her armbands in the process), and her fringe/bangs are reversed.

It's not much, but I found it rather interesting how they looked like they had different designs.

For a little bonus for the image, I also added their original debut appearances in a segment of the manga volumes (Japan only) where Masashi Kishimoto redrew fan-characters. Both Azure & Breeze, as well as Scarlet debuted here (with different names, and different weapons). Interestingly Azure's early design seems to resemble Watage Mimikaki's outfit closely (and the direction of her hair).
