1st Lt. Nike McCampbell, 1st Battalion, 78th Field Artillery, 428th Brigade, signs the jeans that her brigade made to honor National Denim Day, April 27, 2022, and the victim in Italy for whom the day is named. Denim Day was established after a 1992 court case in which a rape conviction was overturned because the victim wore tight jeans. The court determined the jeans were so tight the victim would have had to assist in their removal, therefore making the sex consensual. Since then, wearing jeans on Denim Day has become an opportunity to make a fashion statement and wear jeans as a visible means of protest against misconceptions that surround sexual assault.
