You need to provide className for the wrapper/container as styled-component injecting the styles through it:
const SignupForm = ({ className }) => (
<form className={className}>
<input className="input" />
<button className="button">Button</button>
</form>
);
const Form = styled(SignupForm)`
.input {
background-color: palegreen;
}
.button {
background-color: palevioletred;
}
`;

If you use the styled(MyComponent) notation and MyComponent does not render the passed-in className prop, then no styles will be applied. To avoid this issue, make sure your component attaches the passed-in className to a DOM node:

Just add extra atrribute className by using attrs to existing styled component.
const FormWrapper = styled.div.attrs({
className: 'SignupForm',
})`
.input {
/* Custom Styles */
}
.button {
/* Custom Styles */
}

styled-components vs className for css styling ?
There isn't a standard at this point from what I can tell.
I personally use styled-components and find it much easier. Big benefit being styles related to component are within the same file, so the modularity is good.
Tailwind has been picking up steam, especially good for rapid development.

classNames prop: built-in; harder to use with CSS modules and annoying to conditionally concatenate classes, requires naming classes (naming is hard).
style prop: built-in; cannot use media queries, annoying to use (inlined) inside some components, harder to use style that are derived from props.
styled-components/emotion: 3rd party; extra bundle size, CSS-in-JS add runtime processing time. However, more productive. fixes previous issues and some CSS annoyances (eg. specifity).

When we render PinkButton, the Tag variable is equal to our Button component. PinkButton will generate a unique class name (def456), and pass that as the className prop to Button. If you're confused by this process, you're not alone; we've entered the mindbending realm of recursion, where styled-components are rendering styled-components.

May 2, 2023 - This is also configured at the top level in the component, usually on the wrapper, so that any parent can pass down a class and have it applied. You cannot, as far as I'm aware, pass dynamic props down to the classes. For example, if you wanted to set the source for a background image on a div, you would normally do this with css, but maybe you wouldn't want to hardcode it. The only way you could do this if you were using classnames, is to set an inline style on the element like this:

You can remove the className prop and add a prop isIndented={props.linkIndentHome} props.linkIndentHome is a bool that holds true or false, to represent if its indented or not.
Pass the prop to the Li component and use it there to take the decision. Something like as follow:
const Li = styled.li`
border-bottom: 1px dotted #D3D3D3;
text-indent: 3rem;
...other styles
${props => props.isIndented && `
border-bottom: 1px dotted
...whatever other styles for indentation
`}
