You can do this via the Style Libraries in the Custom Border Form project on CodePlex.

There are currently three skins available: Longhorn, Vista, and WMP. There are some demo usages as well on the site.

Alternatively there is also WinForms SkinFramework available on CodeProject.

The problem lies in the fact that WinForms is a managed wrapper around the native Windows UI elements. So the font and other styling is ultimately controlled via the Operating System theme (Aero in this case).
