Defining IconColor property in Model.

namespace AccordionXamarin
{
    public class ItemInfo : INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        private Color _iconColor;

        public Color IconColor
        {
            get => _iconColor;
            set
            {
                _iconColor = value;
                OnPropertyChanged("IconColor");
            }
        }

        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

        private void OnPropertyChanged(string Property)
        {
            PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(Property));
        }
    }
}

Populating IconColor in ViewModel.

namespace AccordionXamarin
{
    public class ItemInfoRepository
    {
        public ObservableCollection<ItemInfo> Info { get; set; }

        public ItemInfoRepository()
        {
            Info = new ObservableCollection<ItemInfo>();
            Info.Add(new ItemInfo() { IconColor = Color.DarkOrange });
            Info.Add(new ItemInfo() { IconColor = Color.DarkBlue });
            Info.Add(new ItemInfo() { IconColor = Color.DarkRed });
            Info.Add(new ItemInfo() { IconColor = Color.DarkViolet });
        }

    }
