Ivana Knoll uploaded a cheeky topless cartoon of herself at the World Cup.
The Croatian beauty caused quite the stir at football’s biggest competition in Qatar. She defied local rules and expectations of modesty, by rocking some skin-tight, red and white chequered outfits inspired by her beloved Croatia.
Knoll was almost there from start to finish, as Zlatko Dalic’s side went on to register an impressive third placed finish in the Middle East. As Knoll counts down the days until the one year anniversary of her mischievous activities in Qatar, she reminisced by uploading a naughty cartoon of herself in the stands.
The artwork featured Knoll wearing the iconic red and white, sleeveless chequered dress she became known for. However, in the photo, she had almost torn it in half so she could reveal her bare chest.
Her modesty was only just preserved by some tiny football stickers, tactically placed over the top of her nipples. On her Instagram story, she re-posted the picture to her 3.2million followers alongside a laughing face and face-palming emoji.

While Knoll has never completely stripped for her admirers, she is known for the raunchy posts she uploaded before, during and after the World Cup. In an interview with PA, Knoll admitted she was determined to not compromise on her audacious style in the Middle East.
“First I was thinking 'if the World Cup is happening there, they will allow us everything to make it comfortable for all fans without any of the restrictions'," she said. “Then I heard about the rules and I was shocked. The dress code forbids showing shoulders, knees, belly and everything and I was like ‘Oh my God, I don’t even have the clothes to cover all of that’.

"I was super angry because if I’m not a Muslim and if we in Europe respect hijab and niqab, I think they need also to respect our way of life, our religion and in the end me wearing dresses, bikinis because I’m Catholic from Croatia who is here, because of the World Cup.
"But when I arrived I was surprised they were not making any problems about dressing, they allow you to wear everything what you want – except in government buildings, and in the end that’s fine."
