It would depend on the gauge you are trying to obtain. #8 crochet thread generally works up best with small steel hooks in sizes like 1.0-2.25mm but you could produce a lace with a nice drape using a larger hook, such as a 3.5mm or even 4.0mm or 5.0mm. If you have the time, make small swatches using various sized hooks and put them in a scrapbook for future reference.

Can you get a size 50 Metric Crochet Hook?

Are you looking to find a "size 59 metric crochet hook"? It wouldn't be easy, the largest hook I've seen has been a size 'Q' which is 15mm. If you want one bigger, you would have to build it yourself, would be my guess.
