Im really likin the new one revealed today. Now all thats left is a "fire rosalina" one and I think she's good to go. (though biker would be nice)
A fire Rosalina would be pretty cool, but the biker outfit probably wouldn't work. In a few pictures and videos, it's shown she uses her dress for some attacks.

Your guess is as good as mine

That wouldn't really work that well. As Craxian said the dress is used for quite a few attacks (the whole cosmos under her gown thing was taken quite literally in Smash) plus the anti-gravity effect seems to be tied to her dress as well since in Mario Kart Wii and SM3DW Rosalina floats with the dress on but any other outfit has her on the ground.
Fire Rosi or Cosmic Spirit seems pretty likely though. I wouldn't really say she even needs an alt costume since she looks gorgeous in her regular attire anyway.

I agree the biker outfit wouldn't make sense or be necessary, but I would like to see it anyways.

I've been thinking if the leaked roster isn't the final one, there's one more clone left and (this is the important part) they were previously an alt costume in development, what potential alt could become their own fighter. We know Lucina was originally just a Marth costume for one thing.

Daisy, Kumatora, Impa, Galaxia Knight, Toon Zelda/Tetra and (a very doubtful) Hilda (TP styled or not). I don't really see ANOTHER clone from the Mario series, even if for once it doesn't clone Mario. Of course we might not even get another clone and those three are all we get.

I recreated all of Rosalina's palette swaps onto her high res official artwork with full transparency. You can find all of them here.

A couple of lower-res samples:

I remember trying to recolour her 5000x5000 render before as I wanted to make a cute "never gonna happen" alt, but the render was being a bit awkward in terms of selection precision and what not.

These were painstakingly masked. You'll never get good results just using the selection wand.

While I do enjoy the fact that all of her alternate colors are pretty and vibrant, I think that it would've been neat if they were a bit more... I dunno, "fancy"? They're kinda literally the same thing every time, aside from Fire Rosalina... D:

I know, right? I was really hoping for a Cosmic Spirit alt.

I wish her red one looked exactly like my avatar. I love it when her or Peach have their hair up in pony tails, it's so cute. c:

In NashRiskin's Rosalina and Luma guide, he says "Luma respawns after waiting a set period of time (about 7-8 seconds). If Rosalina loses a stock then the current Luma vanishes and a new one respawns next to Rosalina when she returns to the stage. The Luma colors are aesthetic only."

And I guess that's that.

I love the colors, except for the green one. Don't get me wrong, it looks great, I just feel it's a little too close to her default, might get a little confusing with multiple Rosalinas, but whatever it works. My favorites are easily the Fire and White Mage costumes.

Aside from her default color, I also love her purple and white color, which I'll probably end up using it just as much as I'll be using her default.

Pink, Purple, Black, and White are my favorites. But she has some lovely alts in general. One thing I love about the eight alt thing, lots of more colorful alts, instead of the requisite green/red/blue alts and then a couple others.

What makes it even more annoying is that the texture for that is literally on Rosalina:



But Sakurai thought it'd look better as a ****-clock than an alt. :V
