I love this dress because it's so retro, and yet it can be dressed up to be a kind of nerdy chic - the very look that I want for my art museum artwork. And this is where I would like my lady friends to help me out. So what to wear with this, to give this a nerdy chic look?
No high heels, for sure. At 6 foot 1, I'm tall enough as it is, and plus, high heels aren't good for walking around a museum for 2+ hours. So flats of some sort.
Certainly boho jewelry. Also, a small purse - nothing big or clunky, but something to go with the nerd chic look. Ah, the possibilities are making me drool. >.<
I'll keep working on this, and then I'll find an artist to do this. A proactive thanks to any of the ladies who help me out!

Too tall for heels? Never. I worked with a lady who stood 6' even. She added 4"-5" heels as a matter of course. The woman mad an entrance when she walked into a room, let me tell you! =)
Anon, while I certainly can wear high heels, I prefer to not wear them. They're hard on my feet; especially for strolling around in a museum for 2 or more hours. Heels may look nice, but they're not practical. I won't totally discount looking for them while finding out how to accessorize this dress, but the odds are against me selecting them.
Wow, you are only a few inches shorter than I. You could possibly model if you chose.
