WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., May 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Bali®, the No. 1 national intimate apparel brand in department and mid-tier stores, will celebrate the launch of its new Comfort-U™ bras and a national donation drive supporting The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® with a kickoff event at the Herald Square Macy's in New York City today between noon and 2 p.m.

Photographer and supermodel Helena Christensen, the face of the Bali product line and its new advertising campaign, will be onhand noon to 1 p.m. to meet with shoppers.

The Bali bras' Comfort-U™ design ensures the straps and back stay in place, delivering the ultimate fit and comfort in a place most women don't think to look – the back.

Macy's shoppers who attend the kickoff will be treated to free bra fittings from in-store experts, free massages and the chance to be among the first women to experience the elegance and sophistication of the line of Bali Comfort-U™ bras and complementary line of panties and shapewear. Plus, for every massage enjoyed during the event Bali will donate $5 to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation®.

Bali invites women to be virtual guests at the kickoff by visiting Bali online at www.balicompany.com. There, women can learn more about the Comfort-U™ bra and feel as good on the inside as they do on the outside by giving back to an important cause with barely a lift of the finger. For every mouse click on the Comfort "U" on the Bali website the brand will donate $5 to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation®, up to $25,000.
