1. install kubuntu 21.04 with minimal installatoin mode
2. install libreoffice by sudo apt install libreoffice
3. set dark breeze theme in kubuntu settings
4. open any .docx (or any other like this) document

Actual Results:
dark icons looks bad

Looking at your screenshot, you are using the "Colibre" icon set, which is only suitable for light theme.  You need to change the icon set manually, by going to Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View > Icon Style.  Since Colibre doesn't have a corresponding dark set, you likely want to choose "Breeze (dark)" or "Breeze (SVG + dark)".  Click OK button to apply the change, and the new icons should match your dark KUbuntu theme well.  Please test and report back.

It is indeed a problem that LibreOffice can't recognize the desktop environment's dark theme and automatically switch to a dark icon set and dark application color scheme (not available in 7.1.5, new in 7.2).  But there is probably already a bug (or multiple bugs) for that.
