Ok, then what about modifying your data item class so that it has a property referencing to the whole model view?

If your ItemsSource is of type ObservableCollection then modify DataItem type like this:

public class DataItem
{
    public BusinessObject Value { get; set; }

    private ModelView modelView;

    public ModelView ModelView
    {
        get
        {
            return modelView;
        }
    }

    public DataItem(ModelView modelView)
    {
        this.modelView = modelView;
    }
}
