It's hard to tell from the picture whether the metallic-colored accents are silver or gold, but...
Makeup::
I love makeup and would be happy to give you personalized recommendations and/or instructions for a specific look if you can give me your skin tone, eye color, hair color- or a picture would be even better. If you're not comfortable posting it here, my email is xokristabelle@yahoo.com.
Here are some general ideas-
A bronzed (remember to put it under your cheekbones, not on your cheeks!), glowy face. Using a highlighting cream or powder on the tops of your cheekbones would look pretty. Then some kind of dark, smoky eye- with either gold or silver in it, depending on what's on the dress. My favorite makeup artist, Kandee Johnson, has a great tutorial on this:

(She tends to use brands like MAC, but it's pretty easy to find cheap drugstore versions of the same colors.)
If you're pretty comfortable with makeup, false eyelashes look really pretty for special occasions. (Here's how to put them on: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)).
For your lips, use a peach color lip stain, so your color stays, and a nude gloss on top.
A half-up curly hairdo would look pretty with this.
Or, if you're really good at makeup, you could do a really cool blue smoky eye, using a color just like the one on the dress:

I know it looks crazy bright, but if you do it right, it'll just be a subtle pop of color.
Here's how.
1) Prime your lid. (Urban Decay Primer Potion and Too Faced Shadow Insurance are the best.)
2) Using a contouring brush, apply a soft neutral brown, 1-2 shades darker than your skin tone, into the crease.
3) Apply the bright blue on the lid, using a little at a time, and blending into the brown.
4) Place a deep, dark black shadow with a blue undertone on the outer third of the lid. Blend.
(I.E: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location))
5) Line your eyes, including waterline, with black, then go over it with the black shadow on a liner brush. This will really help it stay in place.
5) Take a shimmery white and apply under the browbone and in the inner corner of the eye, blending slightly into the inner third of the lid.
6) Blend with a fluffy brush until seamless.
7) Curl lashes and apply mascara and/or falsies.
Shoes::
Since this is a really unique, funky dress, you can do something different than traditional formal shoes.
I think a metallic color (again, whatever's on the dress- silver, gold, or bronze) would look really cool. Maybe something like this:

Accessories::
I actually really like how they styled the dress for that picture. Wear one big, bold accessory- like that necklace she's wearing, or maybe a similar bracelet, bold bangle, or big earrings. A metallic or black bag. ]
