Could you please share a screenshot about what you find horrible in GTK3?
I'm using the Debian package which looks quite good to me and I
managed to get the OS X version to be nice as well:

The only platform to receive a facelift left is Win32/Win64 which
Pascal had success with:
https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/201410/msg00033.html
When I get my hands on a Windows build system I will give GTK+ 3.14 a
try, but since this most probably won't happen this year I would be
happy is someone working on Windows could fix the build.
I actually think the problems Pascal mentioned are not bugs in
Wireshark but in the Win32/64 GTK+ bundle and should be reported to
the creator of the bundle.
Cheers,
Balint
