The ListView has a Sort method that you can call and you provide the implementation to compare items such that they are sorted in the way you want. You can call that whenever you like, e.g. after adding a new item. See the MSDN documentation for the method itself for an explanation and code example.

As for sorting when the form loads, surely it would make more sense to sort the data before adding it to the ListView in the first place. That will be much more efficient than loading the data first and then sorting the ListView. For instance, if the data is coming from a database then simply add an ORDER BY clause to your query.
