My analogy still stands. Muslim men (and in theory women) have an obligation to protect the honor of their women who are officially helpless little flowers (in practise less so). And they can get really funny about their virgin women marrying into other religions.
Using a vanilla Burqa instead of leather one, is like dressing your woman in an ordinary catholic school girls uniform rather than a latex one. If you try a public display of affection, wearing Haraam clothes, with a Woman who looks traditional Muslim, you risk some have-a-go hero telling you to leave their women alone or else. Or some busybody woman giving her a tongue lashing for being free with her favors.
If you want to pull it off, you'll have to do the equivalent of dressing like a catholic priest and dress muslim. And which point all your harassment from Muslims will now switch over to coming from BNP booty boys, because you've now picked a side in a religious dispute. And muslims will start asking you which flavor of muslim you are, i.e sunni/shia = catholic/protestant
It's not the cloth, it's the symbolism involved. A long, loose vanilla dress, steampunk crinoline, overcoat, motorcycle leathers, or even an actual gimp suit will get you less grief than sticking your dick, in someones religion, in public.
In private Muslims get up to the same kinky stuff the equally repressed Victorian British did, but also like Victorians, their public persona in a foreign land ranges from a laid back, alcohol drinking "going native" to an extra uptight "more British than the British".
And just to balance out the god given intolerance, here's the Top Gear UK team, getting chased out of Alabama [:D]

Ok, I had understood the OP to mean just walking around in public with the burka on. If the OP means anything more than this - i.e., engaging in activities beyond simply the wearing of the burka that might be construed in a negative way, I think I would have to agree with the above. I would be wary of engaging in activity that people might construe as anti-Muslim, or even anti-woman or violent or sexual in some way that is not appropriate for a public space. I will give the same advice to people that I give about public play generally. If you mean by public play that you are literally out in a public area, particularly one that includes families and children, then you need to think carefully about what you are doing. Just as I would not engage in a lewd sexual act in a public space where I though families might be present, I think people in the course of their regular lives, have the expectation to not have BDSM, or religious based play, or whatever, thrust under their noses without their consent. (If this is public play in private space that is a different thing entirely.)
If all you are talking about is walking around, that is probably fine. But be cautious about doing anything that could be misconstrued. I'm not sure that the police will take too kindly to public acts that are lewd or offensive in some way if people call the police to complain. And then you will have to explain yourself more than you probably really want to. And if you think some of us are overreacting, perhaps you need to read this:
