Don't Call Them Gull Wings: The long-awaited (and delayed) Tesla Model X finally entered the spotlight Tuesday night, boasting nifty "falcon-wing" doors and the electric drivetrain that will make the Model X the "quickest SUV" in the world.

A Giant Steps Down: Ralph Lauren, a true titan of American design and fashion, is stepping down after helming his eponymous label for almost half a century. Stefan Larsson, a former H&M executive and president of Old Navy, will pick up the Pony's reins. [New York Times]
Define "Curvy": Supermodel Gigi Hadid shot back at critics who apparently think she's too curvy for the catwalk. Which is kinda strange, because have you seen Gigi Hadid? "Yes, I have boobs, I have abs, I have a butt, I have thighs, but I'm not asking for special treatment," she wrote in an Instagram post. If that's curvy—even by supermodel standards—then what about women who spend time in the gym toning exactly that? Haters gonna hate, Gigi, but we're with you on this one. [CNN Style]
