I’d say, ‘No’ to all but the tie and a different hat. Maybe a beret. It’s small enough not to overwhelm his head.

Actually, Ralston IS kidding him. I think that Hamhock’s entire shtick is that he is absolutely NOT cute, and no amount of lipstick one puts on him will improve it. His lack of cuteness, along with his utter lack of social grace are what make him funny.
On the Cute scale, Pig in “Pearls Before Swine” gets a 9.5; Hamhock gets a 2, only slightly higher than Bixby.
