Modest swimwear range like Modli but U.K. based?

So I really like the look of the modli swimwear that keeps popping up on my Facebook feed, but it’s American. Is there a U.K. version? I have been waiting for years for something like this, it will give me so much confidence, not the skirted monstrosities the main chains have been offering. I want active wear!

Search for 'boyshort swimsuit' and get something similar at half the price. Modest or not, wont vanish up your backside and doesn't need painful hair removal.

I've had Swimsuits from Landsend.co.uk and they don't ride up like others I've had. They also do shorts with a tankini top
shorts kind
I like the tugless swimsuits, no bum cheeks showing when swimming in them.

@Youdontknowwhatyoureonabout hmm not the speedo ones, I like that the modli range has a pick n mix of styles and different tops and bottoms to choose from. I find being large chested most swimming costumes tend to drag my breasts down, unless I get a long line or tank top/bikini top and then I’m not comfortable in those.

Modli do free worldwide shipping if you spend over $50. Looking at the prices you could easily spend that on just one swim suit. Could you order a few to try and then return the ones you don't want?

Thanks @Kinsters that’s good to know, was hoping to find something U.K. based to order several to try at home and then return. Maybe I need to try some catalogues again.

Will read modli terms and conditions about returning to the us, as that’s not cheap! Plus I don’t think I’d get a refund of import tax paid if I returned them.

Bump.
I think I’m looking for longer cycling style shorts, maybe to mid thigh or above knee and a longer tank top or a swim dress which is longer than usual. Or a longer swim skirt to cover the tops of my thighs. All the U.K. swim skirts and dresses seem to stop at the bottom of underwear level not longer.
