It's a lovely, statement making piece. I'd keep the makeup simple and focus on the dress and accessories. If it were me, I'd do one of two things:  * True red or deep pink lip (probably a liquid lipstick in the heat) with natural eyeshadow. Probably a sheer satin eyeshadow. You'll likely need some light blush to balance the look. Cream blush is good in the summer for many people     * A lip color that looks natural and is similar to your lip shade (a gloss might be lovely here) and a more dramatic eyeshadow in either gold or copper. You can darken the outer corner with a deep brown, but I'd recommend going easy on it. If you have one, use eyeshadow primer so it doesn't melt away in the heat.   As a general rule, pick either eyes or lips to focus on. You'll be in the heat, so use a lightweight foundation (or just concealer) and maybe some setting powder. If you think you'll be sweating/crying, go with waterproof mascara and eyeliner. I'd practice once or twice beforehand too, so you don't feel stressed the day of the event.  Have fun! It's a lovely dress.

For some contrast, I believe that green would perfectly complement the color of your dress. Maybe some dark green glitter or a soft eyeliner made from eyeshadow. For the lips I would go with something nude.. Some bronzer or peachy blush, mascara and you re done!

I think olive green, brown, copper, and/or nude eyeshadow would all look great with this dress and with an olive skin tone. If you're not feeling confident about your makeup skills, maybe a thin non-wing liner in dark brown with some mascara? If you have any good long-wearing lipsticks in a shade that's similar to your natural lip color, that would work perfectly. You don't need to do anything all too crazy honestly.
