What carbon fork on a steel frame?

Speaking strictly aesthetically what carbon forks look best on a steel frame? If the frame is made from 853 OS tubing and has a 1+1/8" headtube what forks have shapes that lend themselves well to smaller (not super small though) round diameter tubes?

Frith,
Sorry for the cheap plug, but I've got a used Look HSC3 fork 'round here that I'm parting with. It needs to go and I think the looks (no pun intended) will be right. The blades are thick, but not too much, and the shape is elegant. Plus, the crown thins down to a pretty small diameter (even for a fork built for conventionnal headsets), it would match a steel frame nicely.



PM me if interested. I've joined a pic of the actual fork.
