it is different for everyone. some people can handle the bigger sizes with the droop. so it depends. as long as you don't wear something too heavy in it and you stretch carefully and give enough healing time, you should be fine to be at that size

"The wolves wear the wool
Of the sheep they have fooled
And preach their code of conduct:
"You've gotta push that, push that product"
We'll live in fear, for coats they may sheer
The fleecing of a fleeting flock
You may have my wool
You may have my locks
But my voice you have not
My voice you have not
We're sitting ducks, with feathers plucked
You hide your fangs so cleverly dear
You sing your songs so prettily..."
