France's Directorate General for Competition, Consumer Affairs and Fraud Control initially raised concerns about the dolls on Saturday.

“We obviously condemn the recent events surrounding the doll controversy,” Frederic Merlin, president of SGM, said in an Instagram post on Sunday.

Nearby, a group of wooden "matryoshka" dolls, in traditional Russian dress with rosy cheeks, stood on one shelf, gleaming across from brightly painted Soviet tin cars.

Described in the wall text as a “living matryoshka doll,” the collection of eight pieces shown on one model distills the V&R poetics: a powerful idea, a performance-oriented presentation, a sense of wonder.

That weird Strawberry Shortcake doll that would burp its signature scent in your face when you squeezed its stomach.
