Flattering bikini for 50 something

I have not worn a bikini in years and after losing some weight, would like to get one for a forthcoming holiday in Thailand. I have a large bosom (36E) and would like something high waisted. I am aged 51, 5ft7, Size 14. My budget is up to £150. I have fair skin and don’t tan easily so do t want to get anything flashy and white or neon! I was thinking of a black bikini or something fairly timeless that will make me feel confident when wearing it. Thanks for any suggestions.

Not sure about the black , wouldn't it make the contrast with white skin more obvious ? I've got very pale skin and my bikinis are in thd colours that suit me in normal clothes (pinks and greens) I'd stay away from beige and gold though as you could look naked from a distance if you get a vague tan

Look at Pour Moi - they do separates and cup sizes. They have a variety of bottoms like fold overs.

I used to always buy Freya or Fantasie bikinis when I was brave enough to wear them
