Actually, Bryan Konietzko said that while alot of people assumed she was inspired by Lust, he had already designed this character before he even knew about the FMAB series. He did say that he was flattered if people thought lust was an inspiration since he liked her design too.

but the whole idea of a woman with dark lipstick and that kind of color palette being a villain is so overdone and actually very expected, that I'm relieved they didn't do something predictable and turn Asami into another villain, but rather a humble wealthy person who's more down to earth and genuine. We just assume a charatcer like this is supposed to be an antagonist because we've seen it so many times in shows and movies.
