Hilary Barry hits back at age-shaming man who said she was too old to show off her shoulders

Seven Sharp's Hilary Barry has hit back at an age-shaming man who criticised what she was wearing, in the best way possible.

Taking to Instagram the TV host shared a screengrab of the man named Geoff's rude comment.

"Please encourage Hilary to dress properly. Exposed shoulders are for the young," Geoff’s comment read.

In the caption, Hilary swiped back writing: "Some classic age shaming from Geoff. Just for the record, I’ll wear what I like, when I like."

All we can say is ... Yas queen!!!

She later followed up her takedown with a stunning photo of her wearing a once piece, strapless swimsuit – rocking that exposed shoulder look - on the beach.

"This is for every Geoff who ever told a woman what to wear, or what part of her body to cover up," Hilary wrote alongside the snap.

"We will not be told. Not now. Not ever," she added.

Other Kiwi women chimed in to share their support of Hilary.

"YESSSSSSSSSSS MUMMA," Bachelorette NZ star Lily McManus wrote in the comments section.

"Might have been the same Geoff that wanted my moko covered up! AHHH bless!” The Hits’ drive host Anika Moa wrote.

Celebrity Treasure Island host Bree Tomasel added: "We want more shoulder!!!"

Comedian Urzila Carlson even offered to fight Geoff on Hilary’s behalf.

"I will fight Geoff!! Tomorrow go topless sitting behind some well-placed cupcakes! These people sh*t me to death!" she said.

This isn’t the first time Hilary has faced judgment over her wardrobe choices.

Earlier this year a woman called Jocelyn also took issue with the Kiwi star's off-the-shoulder look, to which Hilary replied: "I am a 50-year-old woman who will continue to wear exactly what I like, when I like and, wherever I like. Enough with the age-shaming. I’m embracing life. I’m pro-aging not anti-aging."
