I think the spacesuit looks kinda bad.
Bad as in good?
I think they look pretty cool. I wouldn't want to survive alone on Mars with one, but they look like they've had some brand design input.
Bad as in bad.
A lot of space technology is purely functional, but these clearly have poor design taste put into them. The old suits that the Apollo era used were probably almost only functional, yet even they look better.
Not sure how it is possible to consider fashion vs getting to do a space walk.

I think they did consider fashion for these suits, they just did so poorly.
I think it's hard to make the suits look sleek and cool if only because you need to fit many layers of insulation and rotator joints, tubing, etc. Makes it very difficult to have something tailored and fitted, which seems to be what SpaceX is trying to do. There could be a mobility advantage in having a suit that is closer to your body though, as in less risk of having your suit tangled or damaged by objects around you.

They look poor compared to what? They're more modern looking than the ISS suits currently in use.
