Have any complaints about Lara Trump’s risque New Year’s Eve dress she wore to the Mar a Lago bash?

Take it up with the designer.

After the political pundit received backlash on her Instagram post showing off the sexy frock, which basically had no bottom half, Oscar Lopez told TMZ she is unbothered.

“It’s important to recognize that public figures often face differing opinions, especially if your last name is Trump,” the onetime “Project Runway” star told the outlet. “Each individual responds to such situations in their own way. In Lara’s case, this does not faze her in the least.”

Haters flooded her comments section, calling the dress such harsh adjectives as “too provocative,” “trashy” and “inappropriate.”

Someone else added a shocked face emoji, writing, “That’s what you call a High Class HOOKER dress.”

Even some of her top followers were disappointed:

“Huge fan, but Lara is beautiful and intelligent. You don’t have to show your body like that. Please be a little more conservative!”

At least one person acknowledged the mother of three, who is a super-fit marathon runner, could pull it off: “Funny how everyone criticizing the dress doesn’t have a body to wear a dress like this.”

Lopez also posted on his own social media a video of Trump sashaying around in his thigh-baring creation at the Palm Beach resort, and received a way more positive response.

“What a way to bring the new year!’”gushed a fan. “All about the legs!”

But scroll down a bit, and you can see Lopez, too, got his share of shade:

“All these people who are ‘wowing’ this piece of ‘mistake’ should go to Lara’s instagram and read real comments under her post with this dress (if you can call it this way)“ wrote @lancetta007, whose account is private. “Such a tasteless choice for a classy woman.”
