KDE4 and Konsole, Kmix, Gwenview inconsistent look

I have installed KDE 4 kdebase-workspace and couple of KDE applications. These happen to have rather strange look, reminiscent of GTK but maybe it is also Plasma 5 look & feel. I cannot tell.

Here are images:

In About section of these apps I see that it uses KDE Frameworks 5.9.0. Does it mean that they have a new Plasma 5 look?

Can anything be done to achieve the look consistent with KDE4? Maybe using older version of these apps?

Inversely, can something be done to achieve Plasma 5 look in KDE apps running under Plasma 5 which still have the old KDE 4 look? (like Krusader)

Re: KDE4 and Konsole, Kmix, Gwenview inconsistent look

Thanks. I installed the Oxygen and I do see the difference. However it doesn't look 100 % ok. The font is rendered ugly and tabs are too hight, etc..

Can something be done about this?
