How to loop through all the fields in an MVC Model, without naming them in advance?

Question

I am building an MVC remote sharepoint app & have written some code to push a ListItemCollection to a JSON Feed, without needing to know the field names.  How can I do the same for a custom model passed as formdata from the view ? Here's a snippet of the JSON code, which shows what I'd like to do

   foreach (ListItem oListItem in IndListItem)

           {

                int fcount =oListItem.FieldValues.Keys.Count;
                for (int j = 0; j < fcount; j++)
                {                     fname= oListItem.FieldValues.Keys.ElementAt(j);
fval = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(oListItem.FieldValues[fname].ToString());                 }
                 json += '"' + fname + '"' + ":" + '"' + fval + '"' + ",";
                }
I want to acheive something like 

sp.ListItem oListItem = list.GetItemById(id);

foreach (xField in formdata)

{oListItem[xField] = formdata.getField(xField).ToString();}
