===Development===
In ''Super Mario Land'', the developers wanted the game to take place in new worlds, far away from the Mushroom Kingdom.<ref>[http://www.ign.com/articles/2009/07/27/ign-presents-the-history-of-game-boy?page=2]</ref> Princess Daisy was created to fill the damsel-in-distress role for the new setting, Sarasaland. In conjunction with the [[Sarasaland#Name_origins|name origins]] of her country, she was named after the daisy accessories that make up her motif.<ref>''With LUIGI 30th Anniversary: The Year of LUIGI Memorial Book''</ref> Despite her role, Daisy was given the unique description of being an energetic tomboy; defining traits that carried through years later.

Her appearance, however, has since changed. Daisy's hair was longer, reaching past her waist. Her crown was red, and consisted of a yellow and white, flower jewel.<ref>''Super Mario Land'' box-art</ref> Her dress consisted of a white waist-band, and a white, dollop pattern. In ''NES Open Tournament Golf'', she sported an athletic minidress. Her eyes and jewels were shown to be blue for the first time, as previously both were black. The dress still used the dollop-pattern, and its length revealed yellow slippers; this outfit did not include her crown or floral gloves. Even at the time of these early appearances, Daisy had unique facial-features from Peach.

In ''Mario Tennis'', her unique features were enhanced, becoming more in-line with how she appears today. Her hair was made darker, and she was also given a tan; in-game the tan was not present. Soon after in ''Mario Party 3'', she wore her full attire again for the first time since her debut. Her crown was now rose-colored, and blue jewels were added to the sides; in-game her crown was still red. Her shoes were depicted as heels for the first time, and were shown to be orange. While in artwork her jewels were the usual blue, in-game they were closer to the green they are today. The green jewels were even included on her trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', which is one of the last uses of this general appearance of hers.
