There's no real evidence to state that dressing provocatively puts one at greater risk or encourages rape or assault.
However drinking excessively would definitely put women at greater risk and can lead to bad situations based on bad judgement calls and unsafe decisions. It doesn't even have to be the example of rape. People do dumb and unsafe stuff when they drink excessively. As well, drinking can encourage bad or even illegal behavior in the people around said person.
This is not to suggest that anyone deserves to be raped (or stabbed or beaten or anything else) if they over indulge even to an irresponsible degree. But risky behavior is just that. Risky.
