No one said you couldn't wear the costume. Obviously you can wear it, just don't wear it to the parks. There would be so much confusion going on between the little ones if the parks allowed adults to dress up as their favorite characters. I said it earlier, there is only one Tinkerbell. Only one Mickey, one Minnie, one Belle, one Jasmine, one Aladdin, etc. Save the costume for Halloween. Speaking of that, I was working a Halloween party one night at Disneyland and this woman was dressed as Cinderella and her mother, I'm assuming, was dressed as the Fairy Godmother. Their costumes looked so real and legit I even did a double take. Pretty soon they had formed their own autograph and photo line because there were at least five kids who believed they were the real Cinderella and Fairy Godmother, and they were willingly giving these kids hugs, just like the cast members. Imagine if guests did this everyday. It just wouldn't work.
To add to this Tinkerbell is supposed to be tiny. When you visit with her, the CMs make a big deal of the guests shrinking so that you can visit with Tinkerbell and the other fairies (my oldest daughter was a but freaked out at the thought of shrinking to fairy size). An adult size Tinkerbell goes against the storyline they have created for her.
