I feel like the dress is too costume-y too and I'm not sure a shrug sweater would look particularly good with it. One thing you can do to tone it down is to make sure your hair/make up/nails are as neutral and girl-next-door as possible, and that whatever shoes you choose are plain. In other words, don't show up in that dress with red lipstick and super shellacked hair a la stage make up. Subtle neutral eyeshadow and a natural hair style could balance it out.
I agree. I think that the dress, *especially* with a cardigan or a shrug, screams "I Love Lucy".
