How Do I Change WPF Listview SelectedItem Font Color With ItemSource Bound?

I have WPF window containing a listview that has it's itemsource set to a collection of objects. When I access SelectedItem or SelectedItems[] or Items[], I get the my object back that's bound to that item, not the ListViewItem item 开发者_Go百科itself. I have no idea how to select a row and change it's color since I can't access the item itself, like a winform listviewitem.

ListView derives from ItemsControl which exposes the ItemContainerGenerator property. This object allows you to map a bound entity to its ItemContainer (the item your are looking for) and back.
