Others have answered what I would say, but since you asked me directly I'll give you my answer.

No, she was not asking for it. But her behavior and how she may have presented herself while wearing the said attire may not gain her a whole lot of sympathy. It is still wrong / illegal that she got raped, yes. But using good judgment she should not go into a situation where that might happen.

If she was just walking down the street and was attacked, she is morally and legally right.

If she went to a party with people she did not know, got isht-faced drunk and passed out,then woke up a realized she was raped,then yes, she should still press charges and those guilty should be prosecuted. But, in the end she made a bad choice that left her in that position.

All I'm saying is that given the circumstance / situation - use good judgment!!!
