You probably want to look into using CSS to style the Widgets. Then create a loading mechanism to load a new CSS into the application thus changing its appearance. This is what we did for our app. There are a lot of subtle interactions with CSS and each particular desktop environment which can take some time to work through but since you are only working on a Linux distribution you should be fine.

I had a look and they don't seem to be using Qt Quick at all though. My goal isn't necessarily to make a mobile-ish UI either. What I want to do is make Qt Quick and Qt Widget apps look the same under KDE Plasma or other Linux desktop environments. Ideally, it should also be possible to edit the look of the theme without recompiling the C++ by editing QML files.
