Discover The Intriguing History Of Denim On Fridays At The Spalon

Updated: May 4

Denim Friday's at the Spalon hold a deeper meaning than just a casual dress day. It is a day where we come together to raise awareness about sexual violence and show our strength as a community.


The origins of Denim Day date back more than 20 years ago in Italy. It all started with a shocking ruling by the Italian Supreme Court, where a rape conviction was overturned because the victim was wearing tight jeans. The justices believed that her choice of clothing implied consent and that she must have helped the perpetrator remove her jeans. This ruling sparked outrage and disbelief.


In response to this injustice, the women in the Italian Parliament showed their solidarity with the victim by wearing jeans to work the next day. This act of unity and support sent a powerful message that victim-blaming and harmful myths surrounding sexual violence have no place in our society.


Since then, Denim Day has evolved into a global campaign led by Peace Over Violence. Every year, on a Wednesday in April, we join millions of people around the world in wearing denim to raise awareness about sexual assault during Sexual Assault Awareness Month.

By wearing jeans on Denim Day, we make a visible statement against the misconceptions and harmful attitudes that perpetuate sexual violence. It is a way for us to stand in solidarity with survivors and show our commitment to creating a safer and more compassionate world.



At the Spalon, Denim Friday's serve as a reminder of the importance of supporting survivors and working towards a society free from sexual violence. It is a day where we come together as a community, united in our efforts to challenge harmful behaviors and attitudes.


So, when you see us wearing denim on Fridays, remember that it is more than just a fashion choice. It is a symbol of our commitment to ending sexual violence and creating a world where everyone feels safe and respected. Join us in this movement and let's make a difference together.
