Changing the Foreground is possible and its working, but if i change the background or the BorderBrush nothing happens (default blue Backround color) This is my ListView xaml code, am i missing anything?

        <ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
                <Style.Resources>
                    <Style TargetType="{x:Type Border}">
                        <Setter Property="CornerRadius" Value="20"/>
                    </Style>
                </Style.Resources>

                <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
                <Setter Property="Margin" Value="10, 5, 10, 0"/>
                <Setter Property="Height" Value="67" />
                <Setter Property="Width" Value="500"/>
                <Setter Property="Background" Value="#FFD9D9D9"/>

                <Style.Triggers>
                    <Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="true">
                        <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
                    </Trigger>
                </Style.Triggers>
            </Style>
        </ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
    </ListView>

You need to copy the default template and edit it to be able to change the background colour:

<ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
    <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
        <Style.Resources>
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type Border}">
                <Setter Property="CornerRadius" Value="20"/>
            </Style>
        </Style.Resources>

        <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
        <Setter Property="Margin" Value="10, 5, 10, 0"/>
        <Setter Property="Height" Value="67" />
        <Setter Property="Width" Value="500"/>
        <Setter Property="Background" Value="#FFD9D9D9"/>

        <Setter Property="Template">
            <Setter.Value>
                <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
                    <ControlTemplate.Resources>
                        <Style x:Key="FocusVisual">
                            <Setter Property="Control.Template">
                                <Setter.Value>

Look at the SolidColorBrush resources in the template and edit them as per your requirements.

Using a Trigger directly in the Style won't work beceause of how the default template is defined. Please refer to this blog post for more information.
