Recognize this label?

I had a difficult time photographing this label, as it was folded in half measuring only ¼" and extending out the side seam of a vintage doll wedding dress (that fits a 1960's Barbie). So, I had to photograph one side and then the other, and then Photoshop it to make "label" that sort of looks like the real one. I'm hoping someone will recognize it. It's pretty simple: Dark reddish brown label with white lettering and design.
"S V" with a white longhorn steer head in between the S and the V. Attached is my photo.
Keeping my fingers crossed!

Thanks, I'll ask her!
 
A 1982 newspaper article about this subject noted: "But the men and women who design Barbie's and Ken's wardrobes aren't paid to be innovative. What they do is provide little girls with tiny copies of the clothes in their mothers'--and, increasingly, their own--closets. Not surprisingly, doll clothes bearing the trademarks of Sergio Valente and Jordache, and those created for the Brooke Shields doll, are more stylish..."
 
Sorry I missed this yesterday, @Felice Roland Bond !

I wouldn't have known this as the logo for Sergio Valente immediately, but I was aware that there had been dolls. The 4-inch dolls in the blog post linked above are new to me as well, but there were also Sergio Valente dolls (girls and boys) and outfits in the 11.5" size range, so the same size as Barbie and Ken. They were made by Toy Time, ca. 1982-83. The book "Doll Junk - Collectible & Crazy Fashions from the 70s & 80s" by Carmen Varricchio shows several of them.
