Croatian model, influencer, and DJ Ivana Knoll attended AT&T Stadium on Wednesday to support the Croatia national football team during their opening 2026 World Cup match against England.

Prior to the match, Knoll headlined the FIFA Fan Festival in Los Angeles and performed a subsequent DJ set under her stage name Knolldoll at the Eleven nightclub in Miami.
The influencer, who holds an Instagram following of 2.9 million, has also been spotted at a Formula 1 race earlier this year and is scheduled to perform at the rooftop venue Lavelle in Toronto following Croatia's next match against Panama.
Custom Corset and Fan Reactions
Before Croatia's second match, Knoll spoke about her custom Croatian flag corset worn during the opening game, as reported by Daily Star Sport.
"This is my style, so I guess people already know me and know I always have my own style," said Knoll.
Knoll explained that the outfit required extensive preparation and received significant attention from spectators inside the stadium.
"The reaction was awesome!" said Knoll.
The entertainer noted that the atmosphere inside the venue remained highly supportive throughout the event.
"It was pretty intense [in the stadium], but everything was so positive," said Knoll.
She stated that she finalized the construction of her matchday attire during the early hours of the morning prior to kickoff.
