No doubt The Federations Starships look much cleaner than those in Star Wars.
But to make a distinction, The Federation ships are shown in a time where conflicts are generally short border scuffles between a couple of ships at a time while most of there vessels are used for exploration.
On the flipside, the Star Wars galaxy has been embroiled in a galaxy spanning conflict for almost 30 years by the time of Episode VI. Just try to keep your ship clean and shiney when your bases are being bombed every other week and you're so low and resources that you have to cannibalize some vehicles to repair others. Not to mention that a majority of the Rebellion's ships were converted star liners (cruise ships).
It's a moot point because neither universe actually exists, but it make us wonder what the Federation's ships would look like if they were in a decades long civil-war.
