The cups are thick and look odd.  I will have to cut the lining to take them out, but this is preferable to keeping them in.  Also, the skirt does not pleat like in the photo.  I am 59, and 309 lbs, and I got a 9x (26-28), and I normally wear a 24.  I would say a 24 would have fit my height better, but this isn't falling off me either (its also not wet yet).  I got a size larger because I was hoping it would make the skirt hang looser.  That doesnt seem to be the case.
