There is no graphical representation in the shapefile.

Wael,

There is no support for style information in shapefile format. However, you
can store the style info as a regular attribute value. Using OGR's SQL you
can extract the style string from the kml data and then store it in the
shapefile. Please go through the OGR SQL page[1]. You can get the style
from the special field named OGR_STYLE.

Wael,

First, make sure you are using the libkml driver and not the kml driver.
The libkml driver can read the style information. Then you can get that
information in your shapefile by specifically requesting the ogr_style
column.

Try adding 

-sql 'select *, ogr_style as style from Layer0'
