Washington (CNN) — First lady Melania Trump's popularity continues to climb, according to a new poll out Friday.
The first lady's favorability rating now stands at 54%, up from 37% favorable in January 2017, per a Gallup poll conducted last week. Her unfavorable rating is down slightly from 37% to 33%, with 13% having no opinion.
Nearly a year into her husband's time in office, the first lady has embraced her role, and though she has maintained an air of mystery through her desire for privacy, she has raised her national profile, moving into the White House with son, Barron, in June and accompanying the President on a series of high-profile trips, both domestic and abroad.
In Washington, she has played the time-honored role of White House hostess, but has also unveiled a platform focused on compassion and issues facing children.
Her solo trips this fall have also helped Americans get to know their private first lady: she spoke about challenges facing children at a UN luncheon in New York, traveled to Canada to attend the Invictus Games with Prince Harry in September, made an unannounced visit to a suburban Detroit middle school to kick off the "Week of Inclusion" in October, and last week, toured storm recovery and relief efforts in Texas.

Ping to First Lady Melania's List.
What a First Lady we have!
Stanley Cup playoffs to be held in Hell.
Dippy as it probably sounds, my admittedly superficial opinion is that both Melania Trump and Kate Middleton will be tough acts to follow in their respective roles.
I can’t help but feel like CNN has some sinister motive by running this story. They’re incapable of anything decent where Trump is concerned.
“Nearly a year into her husband’s time in office, the first lady has embraced her role, ...”
Strange, I could swear the mind readers at every news organization found her detesting 45...
I’m not surprised. Mrs. Trump is stylish and dignified, and normal people can’t help but admire her obvious enjoyment of her visits with children.
Part of their way of resolving their cognitive dissonance. They can say “Trump is an a-hole but he’s got a nice wife”.
She looks amazing. As usual.
She’s fantastic! And yes, you’re right - she may be the way liberals can indirectly say that they actually like Trump or at least his policies.
That’s it! She is a natural with the kids, and they know it, and it shows.
Mrs. Trump really lights up when she’s with children, especially sick children or handicapped children. I think people can see that this is really authentic, and it touches a lot of people.
In real life, yes. But as soon as the next Brown person comes along...
Meanwhile, the number of Americans who want to see everyone at CNN dragged into the street and hanged from lampposts hit 89% today. That’s up 10 points from yesterday.
The media is going to pull a Brittany Spears on her. Build her up and up and up, then kick the legs out from under her so you can report every twist in the wind on the way down.
“Stanley Cup playoffs to be held in Hell.”
Hell, Vegas... same thing.
As long as it ends with the Stars holding the Cup, I don’t care where it is.
“Mrs. Trump is stylish and dignified”
She also seems to have a healthy sense of self and a great inner peace, and it gives off a certain aura.
Yes, I think she’s solid.
