Model Ivana Knoll, an avid supporter of the Croatian national team, asserts she has no concerns about being apprehended for violating Qatar's strict dress code while cheering on her homeland team at the 2022 World Cup.
In major football tournaments, the presence of beautiful women in the stands has become an indispensable part of the spectacle. Cameras often focus on attractive female fans wearing provocative outfits, captivating male spectators.
However, at the ongoing 2022 World Cup, female fans have had to exercise restraint in their attire to avoid breaking the dress code regulations of the host country, Qatar, a strict Islamic monarchy.
Yet, the case of model Ivana Knoll, a supporter of the Croatian national team, is an exception. In the match against Morocco, Ivana wore a long red and white checkered dress with a headscarf, but the neckline was deeply plunging, revealing her enticing cleavage.
In the game against Canada, Ivana once again stood out as the most prominent fan in the stands with her extremely provocative red and white checkered dress, showcasing her cleavage, bare shoulders, and legs. Ivana's attire is deemed to violate Qatar's regulations regarding women's dress code, which prohibits exposing shoulders, abdomen, and legs.
Nevertheless, the sultry belle from the Balkans asserts she has no qualms about violating dress regulations in Qatar and potentially getting arrested.
Responding to an interview with PA news agency just outside Khalifa Stadium in Doha, Qatar's capital, Ivana stated: 'First thing I thought they (Qatar) would allow us the most comfort and no restrictions whatsoever.'
'Then, I heard about the regulations and felt shocked. The dress code prohibits bare shoulders, midriffs, and knees, but I don't have clothes to cover all those places.'
'I feel it's unfair because I'm not Muslim. In Europe, we respect their headscarves and attire, so I think they should also respect our way of life, our religion. Ultimately, I wear dresses, bikinis because I'm Catholic and I'm here for the World Cup.'
Ivana also mentioned she hasn't encountered any trouble for her attire: 'Arriving in Qatar, I was surprised they allowed me to wear whatever I want except in Government buildings.' The 30-year-old leggy beauty affirmed she never fears getting arrested and added: 'How could my dress or bikini harm anyone?'.
It's known that before the start of the 2022 World Cup, Ivana shared two bikini photos on Instagram (with 900,000 followers) captioned as being taken on a beach in Qatar.
