Personally, I'd say no unless it's late Autumn or during Winter in Melbourne. I'd wear beige sheer stockings, as they look classier and are more Summery. Also, I think it would complement the dress. Alternatively, spray tan your legs and go bare with cute sandals. If you're wearing a LBD, then that is the statement item and everthing else just complements it and shouldn't compete.
One thing I learnt is to not "cut the line". Don't cut the line of the legs by going for black shoes/sandals - if you have beige or another neutral colour, wear those with a matching handbag. Cutting the line makes your legs look heavier.
If you only have black shoes, wear ones that don't cut across at the ankle - those gladiator sandals come to mind (personally loathe them) - as these just add bulk to ankles and make legs look shorter
btw - the black opaques are in the autumn/winter catalogue. Sometimes it looks OK, but a lot of the times it's very goth, IYKWIM.
