Bikini bra?

Hi all! I have a question that I'd need some advice on - is it possible to get a bikini bra that is actually sturdy, supportive, comfortable, cute and that fits? :) I know, I know, I ask for too much!
My issue with most bikinis is that they use instead of metal hooks, those flimsy plastic claps. Those always break after a few uses..I have replaced them with a shoe lace, a ribbon, sewing the pieces together etc., whatever comes in handy at
I haven't had any good fitting bathing suit bra so far, but haven't tried much either. What seems to be the most successful so far is a no-wire, no-padding, triangle-shaped cup bra, with straps that tie in a knot behind the neck, and the band ties in the back as well. The advantage of this shape is that I can get a big enough cup :) Simply tying the band means I can make it small enough. But these knots get very uncomfortable, plus I get zero support. My other concern is that I have quite a bit of unequal sizes, so a moulded bra might look a bit strange.
I was thinking I'd look for a bikini bra that's as possible similar to the bras that I have found that fit me well, like the Deco or the Curvy Kates. Any suggestions are welcome! ^_^
