Croatian model, 26, dubbed the Qatar World Cup’s ‘sexiest fan’, once again turns heads

Named the ‘sexiest fan’ of the World Cup, Ivana Knoll has once again turned heads in another striking ensemble at Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium.

The Croatian model, 26, first turned heads in a plunging red and white checkerboard dress for her country’s first football match of the World Cup and wore a string of skimpy bathing suits on her trip to Qatar.

But she has maintained that she feels comfortable in her daring World Cup outfits without fear of arrest in Qatar, despite the conservative country’s strict modesty rules.

Now Ivana has put on another buxom display in a plunging checkerboard bra and red pants, with a matching plaid belt, to watch Croatia vs Belgium.

Before Thursday’s match, the beauty flaunted her incredible figure in the skimpy ensemble, which she paired with matching red plaid ruffled bracelets.

She loosely styled her dark brown locks in a straight manner and opted for a glamorous makeup palette and a touch of rouge lipstick.

Ivana seemed to be having the time of her life in the crowd as she blew kisses to photographers and posed while making the shape of a love heart with her hands.

She was also seen taking a series of selfies while standing in the crowd to support her native country in their highly anticipated match against Belgium.

Ivana also took to her Instagram to share glamorous photos of herself in the same outfit while standing in the crowd ahead of the game.

Her latest standout ensemble comes after she wore a long red and white plaid hooded dress for Croatia’s opening game against Morocco.

She attended her country’s second game with Canada in a much shorter red and white plaid dress and posed for selfies with supporters ahead of the game.

It comes after Ivana said she was “super angry” after reading the dress code restrictions for Qatar, which advised both male and female visitors to dress “modestly” in public.

But she said authorities “caused no trouble” for her, as her more than 700,000 Instagram followers received updates on her outfits throughout the tournament.

Her social media posts during the trip also showed her wearing swimsuits and bikinis, drawing both supportive and critical comments from users.

But hitting back at criticism, Ivana said what she was doing was not hurting anyone “And I think how my dress or bikini can hurt someone? Please explain that to me.’

She also said she was not afraid of being arrested for her clothing choices, despite dress code warnings ahead of the World Cup in Qatar.

The British Foreign Office advised visitors to Qatar that women are expected to cover their shoulders and not wear short skirts.

Ivana said outside the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha: “At first I thought if the World Cup takes place there (Qatar) they will definitely allow us everything to make it comfortable for all fans without any restrictions.

“Then I heard about the rules and I was shocked. The dress code prohibits showing shoulders, knees, stomach and everything and I was like ‘Oh my god I don’t even have the clothes to cover all that.

“I was super angry because if I’m not Muslim and if we respect the hijab and niqab in Europe, I think they should also respect our way of life, our religion and ultimately wearing dresses and bikinis because I’m Catholic from Croatia who is here because of the World Cup.

“But when I arrived I was surprised that they didn’t make a problem getting dressed, they let you wear whatever you want — except in government buildings, which is ultimately fine.”

When asked if she felt there was a risk of being arrested because of her outfits, Ms. Knoll replied, “I’m never afraid of anything like that.”

In several of her latest Instagram posts, Ivana even tagged FIFA, which has reiterated Qatar’s strict rules regarding clothing.

“Visitors (both men and women) are expected to show respect for local culture by avoiding overly revealing clothing in public,” Qatar’s tourism authority warned ahead of the World Cup.

“It’s generally recommended for men and women to make sure their shoulders and knees are covered.”

Huge fines and even prison sentences are imposed on fans who show their numbers in Qatar. Non-Qatari women are not required to wear an abaya, but their tops and dresses must cover their midriff and shoulders.

In addition, women traveling to the Arab nation are prohibited from wearing tight clothing or showing their cleavage. WAGs were advised to cover their breasts with a scarf around their neck.
