Can anyone recommend flattering bikini bottoms with better back cut?

I usually buy Fantasie bikinis with the wired tops, and the waist high bottoms. Though I don’t have a flat or even well toned belly, legs are strong and good.

On holiday I saw loads of women wearing bottoms that gave good coverage at the front, were quite high cut but not too high, but showed a bit more bum without being thongs or going up it so to speak. Mine cover my bum fully and I feel dowdy. Being older it’s flatter than in my youth despite working with glutes exercises!

Anyway can anyone recommend a good quality eg Fantasie or similar bikini bottom that is cut slightly higher at the back?

I usually buy just basic black or white bikinis from Next but now I’m having the opposite problem. I find all the ones I try have good bum coverage but on the front they are cut too narrow which lets hairs escape and poke out the sides 😂.

Boy shorts are nice. But maybe too much coverage for some some have a folding waistband

Yes I hate those that are cut so narrow they show what you don’t want! Most that show some bum are cut to high and narrow everywhere!

Take a look at Cupshe. That’s where l got mine. Ignore the somewhat limited filters and search on “High Waisted Brazilian”. They offer different amounts of front coverage. Bum area cheeky without being a thong.
