Preston Konrad is a celebrity stylist who knows a thing or two about dressing stars for big events. He sits down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to talk about some of the biggest trends hitting the red carpet this season and what he's heard about how celebrities are going to honor the #metoo movement.
He explains that an entire team of stylists work together long before the red carpet to pick and choose the look for award season, culminating with the Academy Awards. It then takes a team to put the look together to ensure nothing goes wrong on the big night.
Konrad also gives insight into what he thinks celebrities will do on the red carpet to honor the #metoo movement, explaining that he heard a lot of celebrities are opting to wear female designers, so many of the popular male designers will be left out of Hollywood's biggest night.

There has been notable disagreement in the medical community about a fourth COVID-19 vaccine dose. The FDA last week authorized a second booster dose for older and immunocompromised individuals, as some agency officials did not support the idea. The FDA made the decision without meeting with its advisory committee, as it had ahead of its recommendations on the previous COVID-19 vaccine doses.
The CDC followed in the footsteps of the FDA and authorized a fourth dose as well. Reports say the agency also did not discuss the move with its own advisory team of vaccine experts. Now, a growing number of doctors are speaking out against the decisions - leaving people confused about whether they should get another vaccine dose. Dr. Julie Morita, a member of the CDC's advisory committee to the director, and the executive vice president of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, joins Cheddar News' Closing Bell to discuss.
