You seem to have your boss in your corner now.
If you were asked to take part in something without notice, requiring you to still wear good office clothing and it was ruined, I would definitely ask your boss about the feasibility of claiming against the company's public liability.
And if he has gone off the boil, then I would take it up with HR and not let it rest until you get an answer why you can't claim. They couldn't provide you overalls to protect your clothes?
