Face masks: Fashion or function?

I am very late in asking this question, but 10 months in to this pandemic it is obvious that face masks will be a normal part of life in shops and transport etc for the foreseeable future. Currently I'm walking around like Bane from Batman in a painter and decorators mask. I have seen very few patterned or 'nice' looking masks, mostly people are using the generic surgery looking ones which just depress me a bit. Which do you have / use? Do you think it is trivialising to have a 'fashion' mask or doesn't it matter?

Doesn't matter what it looks like as long as it is a good mask and it works. I have a blue one, a blue and white striped one and a unicorn one made by a local artist. I bought it because I support local artists. The other two I bought as they were thick and durable. I wear surgical masks or N95s at work. I wash the cloth ones regularly. Masks will be part of our lives for some long time to come.
