Its the electrons! Iodine forms a "charge transfer" complex with starch which is ythebest known of its charge transfer complexes. It also forms charge transfer compexes with other compounds which are not blue.
In iodine the charge transfer occurs because of an electonic transition (that causes the color), this causes a small amount of charge to move from the iodine molecule to the starch.
