The second image is of Colette, Lloyd, and Kratos posing together and also seems to be very early. Aside from some slight changes in color and the white gloves, Colette's design is identical to what it becomes later. Additionally, it appears to have been colored by hand and not by computer. You can tell that this image was made early in game production because the lines are sketchy and have stray marks, implying the use of a pencil. The first is a basic sketch of her character. So, there are two images of Colette's old artwork floating around of which I am aware that have her wearing white gloves. However, thanks to u/gavme 's recent posting of retro Symphonia wallpapers, I realized that these white hands were not a graphical error- rather, they were supposed to represent white gloves. Now, I had noticed this when I was younger but just supposed that it was a graphical mistake. However, there's something rather particular about this model: Her hands are white. This required the game programmers to make a new model for Colette in which her clothes were damaged. So, one thing that always irked me about Symphonia, but that I never much investigated was that after you defeat Forcyctus and he comes back, he shoots Colette in the shoulder and tears her clothes. This also helps us identify at what point in game development certain character art was produced. Very late in the game development process, they were axed, but traces of them still exist in the game and artwork. Tl dr Colette originally wore white gloves.
