Ok, I'm not a fashion diva, but I'd suggest classic options with some 'texture' to add interest. You did not specify an occasion for this dress, but the length to me suggests an evening look, so I'll go with those style options for the bag and shoes.

Purse should be a clutch so as not to break up the shoulder line of the dress, I'll give photo examples below. Black or color of your choice or a metallic - this is to your taste, go with classic lines and you can't miss.

According to the web site 'youlookfab' sourced below, while matching shoes and purse are always correct you do not need to follow this style rule to look great and be fashionable. In my opinion, the purse will be your #1 accessory, the shoes will be #2 with this black dress.

Shoes, again classic but nice height on the heels will be great, depending on your tolerance and balance. Me, I have my own limits, but it's up to you.

I might also suggest that (if this is you modeling) that your hairstyle for the night is an 'up do' or maybe (if it's a really important event) consider getting your hair trimmed to an off the shoulder length to show off the 'bateau' style neckline. No necklace though as it would break up the great lines.
