One user said, “This is the the type of #cannes content I’m here for,” while another wrote, “He’s not spotted he’s blue. (Couldn’t resist the dad joke).” Another user said, “Is this ‘Fabulous Felicity?’” Yes, she absolutely is.

Felicity’s story isn’t just about fashion and fame, it’s one of resilience. According to Daily Mail, she was rescued from the dog meat trade in China, where she was strung up by her tail. No To Dog Meat, a UK-based charity, stepped in, saved her life and gave her a new one in London. She now lives with the charity’s founder, Julia de Cadenet, who was moved to start the organisation after witnessing the brutality of the trade firsthand.

The charity, which played a pivotal role in bringing global attention to the infamous Yulin Dog Meat Festival, now holds United Nations Special Consultative status and continues its mission to end such cruelty. Felicity has become a powerful ambassador for that mission.

In 2023, Felicity made her debut at a screening of Project Silence, donning a custom gown crafted by Michelle Parker, a dedicated No To Dog Meat volunteer. Cannes, known for supporting humanitarian causes, welcomed her again this year, complete with her very own festival pass and access to VIP parties and screenings.
