Recommendations for period swimwear bikini bottoms for a size 14 to 16

Could anyone please recommend which period swimwear bikini bottoms I should purchase? I'm a large 14/small 16 (big hips, bit of a belly, but slim legs).

Looking at either these ModiBodi ones:

Period Swimwear Hi Waist Bikini Brief - Super in Black | Modibodi – Modibodi UK https://share.google/RPAa5RETSIGU7nsvV

Or these Wuka bikini shorts

Period Swim Shorts | WUKA® https://share.google/jSdc4RK2PBmhzsxMY

I'd wear with plain black tankini tops I already have.

Any recommendations or experiences welcome please - I've never used period pants or swimwear before. Thanks.

I have, and really like, the modi bodi. Not tested on a heavy day though. I like how high the waist appears on the wuka (I really struggle to find bikini bottoms that come up to my actual waist) but I'm wary of the thin waistband and leg opening elastics. They look like they might be quite unflattering.

@InconvenientlyMaterial thank you for pointing that out about the thin elastics on the Wuka - I agree they may dig in and look unflattering. Leaning more towards the ModiBodi then.

I would highly recommend the Love Luna period bikini briefs, they are incredible and look just like normal bikini bottoms. www.tightstightstights.co.uk/products/love-luna-period-swim-bikini-brief
