Fully set expanding foam can be softened and removed quite easily! I made a terrible mess on my vinyl carpet and nice clothes (silly me!) and a friend of mine, a chemical engineer, gave me the following advice: Expanding foam that has fully set can be softened with paint stripper. Apply generously after scraping off excess and leave to work. It will soften after about an hour and should be able to be removed from clothes after four or five hours by washing, depending on the thickness, it might take longer. Yes, some materials do not take kindly to paint stripper, but if it is going to be thrown out anyway, might as well try. Works a treat!
When the foam has not yet set, acetone will work. But it is messy and will likely ruin your clothes anyway and make your washing machine very smelly. Best to scrape of as much as you can, let it set and then try paint stripper.
