In some Manjaro editions, this is already done for you by default

Install qt5ct using your favorite package manager or the command:

user $ pamac install qt5ct COPY TO CLIPBOARD

Set environment variables in ~/.profile by adding or updating the following lines:

~/.profile

export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME="qt5ct"

Run the application QT5 Configuration Manager from the menu or run the command qt5ct.

Logout and login again to make the change effective
