Change WPF control's ControlTemplate to not be disabled

I have a Devexpress DateEdit and added a trigger for when IsEnabled=False to change the ControlTemplate to be a Label. This all works fine, but my problem is, that the Text of the Label is still Grayed out(Disabled).

My style:

<Style x:Key="DateTimeDropDownStyle" TargetType="{x:Type dxe:DateEdit}">
        <Setter Property="Mask" Value="dd MMM yyyy"/>
        <Setter Property="MaskUseAsDisplayFormat" Value="True"/>
        <Style.Triggers>
            <Trigger Property="dxe:DateEdit.IsEnabled" Value="False">
                <Setter Property="dxe:DateEdit.Template">
                    <Setter.Value>
                        <ControlTemplate>
                            <Label Content="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}, Path=Text, StringFormat={}{0:dd MMM yyyyy}}"/>
                        </ControlTemplate>
                    </Setter.Value>
                </Setter>
            </Trigger>
        </Style.Triggers>
    </Style>

So, my question is, how do i change the Style so that the Label is not disabled?

Try setting Foreground on the Label in your template.

If it doesn't help, you'd have to edit the control template for the label. A basic one is:

<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
    <Border Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
            BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
            BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}">
        <ContentPresenter Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}"/>    
    </Border>
    <ControlTemplate.Triggers>
        <!--This is the trigger to remove-->
        <Trigger Property="IsEnabled"
                 Value="False">
            <Setter Property="Foreground"
                    Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.GrayTextBrushKey}}" />
        </Trigger>
    </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
