It only uses Winamp Classic skins, but it may be useful for someone.
To change VLC’s skin, load the program, hit the “Settings” menu, select “Switch interface” and then “Skins 2.” Once the modern-looking skin loads, you can right-click on blank space, choose “Select skin” and see how the player works and acts with a Winamp Classic skin. If you want to keep the skin, head for the Interface->Main interfaces->Skins dialog in VLC’s preferences and make sure “Advanced options” is checked.
