Would anyone hold a 90 pound weakling guy responsible for looking too weak and thus getting his lunch money taken? Would anyone hold a black person responsible for wearing a tall afro hairstyle and flaunting their blackness around the public since there are potential racists out there hidden among the normal people? Maybe kids should not wear baseball caps in case a plain clothed priest sees them looking too childlike when they are out and about.
The only logical way for appearance to lower one's risk of rape, is for it to mask completely whether or not a vagina is hiding beneath it. In other words, both men and women would have to wear an all-covering burka-like garment that masks general body shape as well.
If the assumption that sexy clothing increases rape is believed, then why would a tasteful secretary-style dress, makeup, etc, who a shitload of men and then some, would find more than fuckable/head-turning not also be a horrible risk factor? Many men go completely horny like crazy over respectable types of attractive looks. Your father fucked your mother, didn't he? Do you think he had to picture her in sexy clothing? Seriously, think about what you are saying about men. That they don't most of the time get horny over respectably attractive women. How many respectably attractive, plain, and even ugly women have children? That is proof that lots of men are finding them attractive enough to have an orgasm into. Are they all wearing sexy clothing?
I would like to see a statistic or research showing about sexy clothing in particular, and how much of an increase in the already-known-to-be-rare-grabbed-off-the-street-rapes it allegedly causes. If that can be shown in a way that proves it to me, I would then like to discuss whether it is reasonable to expect all women to uglify themselves in an attempt to thwart any potential rapists that might be hiding in the crowds around them.

I'm really shitty at giving kudos and rep. That's because I would be inconsistent in remembering to do them, and also I don't really want it to show if any favouritism is happening. Even worse would be inconsistencies causing false favouritisms to show. So, fuck it. Just assume that I've given you some good rep and a number of kudos, and everyone should be happy...
