Some of what is heard regarding the First Lady that the President believes is a bad press; is the fact First Lady Michelle Obama was heavily ridiculed by the right wing press, especially the talk radio bunch. So, some of the negativity the First Lady is receiving is retribution (something the President understands well) for the lousy press First Lady Michelle receives. Former First Lady Michelle still is picked on by Talk Radio. Heaven forbid she should make a public statement about anything, FOX News and Talk Radio are all about defaming her.
So, while some folks may want to apologize to First Lady Melania, there are many who need to make an apology to Former First Lady Michelle Obama. Knowing that will never happen, there is no one that sincerely hates First Lady Melania. Most Americans are glad she is okay and rested. She is our First Lady and she really does love the USA and does her best at fulfilling her duties.
There are those in the fashion industry that boycott any aspect of First Lady Melania's wardrobe. This may or may not be due to her statements about the LGBT community, so much as her husbands'. But, as she said, she agrees with her husband on many things and that is common among political wives.
So, if the fashion industry disapproves of the treatment of LGBT Americans by the Trump administration it is their right to protest in a way that will make that statement. The First Lady's wardrobe is one of those protests and most probably the few magazine articles about her to date also represents that reluctance to reward her with attention when she is very controversial as well. Does any fashion designer or magazine editor want to run the risk of her legitimizing the position of her husband when there would be a backlash? Of course not and I don't blame them.

“She went through a little rough patch but she’s doing great,” Trump said. “The people of our country love you. Thank you, honey.”
One of the reporters there said that Melania was “looking well, like her old self, perfectly healthy from at least her outward appearance.” She didn't speak at the event, according to the reporters. Earlier this week, Donald tweeted to criticize how the media speculated about Melania's absence....
