How to change style of Selected ListView Item in UWP

Question

I have a ListView in my UWP application with this code.

<ListView Name="menuListView" HorizontalAlignment="Center" 
              Grid.Row="1" SelectionChanged="ListView_SelectionChanged" 
              BorderThickness="0,0,0,5" SelectedIndex="0"
              Grid.ColumnSpan="2">

        <ListView.ItemsPanel>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"></StackPanel>
        </ItemsPanelTemplate>
         </ListView.ItemsPanel>
        <TextBlock Name="dayTB"  Text="Day" Margin="25 0 0 0" FontSize="18" />
        <TextBlock Name="weekTB" Text="Week" Margin="25 0 0 0" FontSize="18" />
        <TextBlock Name="monthTB" Text="Month" Margin="25 0 0 0" FontSize="18" />

    </ListView>

It looks like this.

I am trying to make it look like this for quite some time now, but my tries are not successful.

Is there a way to achieve this? Any help would be appreciated.

The right control used in the picture, is the Pivot, not ListView.

try this basic Pivot XAML code, and play around it

<Pivot Title="EMAIL">
<PivotItem Header="All">
<TextBlock Text="all emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem Header="Unread">
<TextBlock Text="unread emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem Header="Flagged">
<TextBlock Text="flagged emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
<PivotItem Header="Urgent">
<TextBlock Text="urgent emails go here." />
</PivotItem>
</Pivot>
