My bet is on this one
Philips Fidelio X1

It just looks like they're trying too hard to me. Seems like a blend between Grado and AKG, to try and target that "retro" look that is becoming popular. (similar to the Sennheiser Momentum, which I think looks bad for other reasons)My bet is on this one

They're just too thick, and look ridiculous when anyone is wearing them.For me it has to be RS2i
Here is a photo of my MDR-7520:I think they are one of the best looking headphone designs in recent years, and I would argue that the 7520 looks even better, which is unusual for Sony. I find that Sony usually gets the design of a product right the first time around, and tends to make things look worse with newer revisions until the next complete redesign comes along, but I prefer the more uniform all black look the monitors have. I think that there will be interest in the Z1000/7520 a few years from now, when people look back on the design of them retrospectively.
Akg K702, HD800's and Skullcandies (just for looks)
I love what the shure 1840 looks like. It is glamourous to me.
