The easiest way is now described in the manual: write your document in 
Org, including all the sorts of stuff you might want to have styles 
for, then export it to ODT, open it in LibreOffice, and tweak the 
styles you find there. Because you exported it from Org, you can be 
sure that the styles have the names the exporter uses. You can 
customize any style, no limits.

LibreOffice's Styles and Formatting window is your friend (accessible 
from the Format menu or from an icon usually at the far left of the 
toolbar). It has tabbed lists of Paragraph, Character, Page, Frame and 
List styles. Right-click on a style to modify it.

When your LibreOffice document looks like you want it to, simply save 
it somewhere smart. The next time you export from Org, point 
org-export-odt-styles-file to that file as your style template.

hth,
Christian
