“A firm with the brand equity and history of Fisher-Price, with its dedication to all things pre-school, is a natural fit for baby apparel. Mayfair will align its long-established, core expertise with that of Fisher-Price. The result will be a brand with credibility, longevity and exceptional functionality,” said Mitchell Tawil, Mayfair’s Executive Vice President and National Sales Manager.

The new layette collection will be available beginning September 2007 at select Sears stores for an average retail price of $18.
