ABOUT DENIM DAY
Denim Day was launched to raise global awareness of the rape and sexual assault, this after an Italian Supreme Court ruling where a woman's attacker walked free because she wore tight denim jeans and helped take them off during her assault which erroneously signified consent in 1998. In 2008, Italy's High Court overturned the “denim defense” ruling.
DENIM DAY is celebrated this year on April 26. Learn more by visiting the website: http://denimdayinfo.org/
