President-elect Donald Trump gave executive authority to his family on their inaugural fashion choices.

“I think he knows, at this point, we all sort of get what to do, and he trusts us,” Lara Trump told The Post on Thursday. “There are a lot bigger fish to fry than what we’re going to all wear for the inauguration.”

When selecting her inauguration looks, Lara, 42, kept the colors of the American flag in mind.

“I always want to err on the side of patriotic colors, but not go too overboard,” Lara Trump said. Tamara Beckwith

“I always want to err on the side of patriotic colors, but not go too overboard. So I will say that I feel I will achieve that,” she said.

For the three inauguration balls she’ll be attending, she’ll don a gown by Cuban-born, Miami-based fashion designer Oscar Garcia-Lopez, who designed the dress she wore at Trump’s inauguration in 2017.

For Sunday’s candlelight dinner with donors, Lara will wear a dress by the Italian designer Chiara Boni, who also made a gown for her in 2017.

“I wanted to mimic the same things that happened [in 2017], because it was a really, really incredible time then and we’re hoping for the same now,” she said.

Lara, who is married to Eric Trump — the youngest of Trump and his first wife Ivana’s three children — said her other half did not weigh in on her sartorial choices.

“Oh gosh, he’s probably seen me put these things on multiple times and he probably hasn’t even realized it. He trusts my judgment on all of this,” she said.

“And in fact, I’ve had to assist him in his own outfit as well, as probably many wives are doing in general.”

She won’t be color coordinating with Eric, or anyone else in the family, and doesn’t even know what the other Trump women will be wearing for the occasion.

“A lot of people have asked me if those of us in the family talked about different colors so we don’t match, but we have not,” she said. “So I guess it will be kind of a surprise to all of us when we show up on Monday.”

This is the first time she’ll also be dressing her two kids, Luke, 7, and Carolina, 6, for the historic event.

“This is a new one for me because I was actually pregnant with my son, who’s my oldest, at the inauguration in 2017,” she said.

“They have what I think are very nice looking outfits for everything. I did try to coordinate their outfits together.”

Lara said their children are “very excited” about their grandfather’s big day.

“We told them we’re having a big party to celebrate grandpa, and everybody wants to come.”
