I am only trying to return the date in my MVC application and have come across a problem. I have applied to my model `DataFormatString = "{0:dd/M/yy}"` and have also included `ApplyFormatInEditMode = true` as suggested from these posts [ASP.NET MVC displaying date without time](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6593238/asp-net-mvc-displaying-date-without-time) and [Displaying Date only MVC](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18589270/displaying-date-only-mvc)

I am however generating the field to include the next 5 week commencing dates as shown here into a dropdownlist <http://prntscr.com/ak825u>. 

This is done through the following code 

```
  // GET: TimeSheets/Create
    public ActionResult Create()
    {

        int weekCount = 5;
        List<DateTime> listDates = new List<DateTime>();

        for (int i = 0; i < (weekCount * 7); ++i) //Get next 5 weeks
        {
            //Adds only next 5 mondays to the list of dates
            if (DateTime.Today.AddDays(i).DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Monday)
                listDates.Add(DateTime.Today.AddDays(i));
        }

        ViewData["DateList"] = new SelectList(listDates);

        return View();
    }

```

How would I go about removing the time to just display the date
