Hi Ramon,
I guess you'll have to redo the layer style in QGIS. Whatever format Mapinfo uses to store style information (the is no style information contained in any of the shapefile files), QGIS can't interpret it. Depending on the Mapinfo file format, you could propably write a converter to QGIS style files.
Best wishes,
Anita
