Create a user control that contains the specified fields you need to edit an item of your list

<UserControl x:Class="DisplayUserControl" ...>
    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
        <TextBlock Text="Name"/>
        <TextBox Text="{Binding Name}"/>
    </StackPanel>
    ...
</UserControl>

Bind the user control datacontext to the selected item of your List

<MainWindow>
    <ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding to your data}" x:Name="list"/>
    <local:DisplayUserControl DataContext="{Binding SelectedItem, ElementName=list}"/>
</MainWindow>

I just used a simple ListBox for displaying data
