An Australian man was acquitted of rape Friday when a jury ruled there had to be "collaboration" to remove the woman's tight size 6 skinny jeans.

Nicholas Gonzales, 23, admitted to having sex with the 24-year-old accuser, but insisted it was consensual.

The woman said Gonzales pushed her on his bed and held her down against her will, the Daily Mail reported.

"I struggled to try to get up for a while and then he undid my jeans and he pulled them off," she testified.

Gonzales' lawyer pressed her, saying it would be "difficult for skinny jeans to be taken off by someone else unless the wearer's assisting, collaborating, consenting."

"I would disagree," the woman replied.

The "skinny jeans defense" has become more common in rape trials all over the world.

In 2008, a South Korea jury overturned a rape conviction for the same reason.

An Italian jury upheld a rape conviction in 2008 when lawyers brought a skinny jeans defense, saying "jeans cannot be compared to any type of chastity belt."
