So, you're gearing up for the Masters golf tournament - an event that promises world-class golf, breathtaking views, and (of course) impeccable style.

That's where we come in - Glenmuir has every element you need to craft the perfect outfit (or outfits) to last the entirety of the tournament. That way, you'll feel your best every time you step onto the course.
What To Consider Before Picking an Outfit for The MastersWhen it comes to picking out your outfit for the Masters golf tournament, there are a few key things to keep in mind. First off, let's talk about the weather... April in Augusta is typically sunny, but can still be a little unpredictable with temperatures ranging from cool mornings to warm afternoons. So, it's essential to check the weather forecast for each day of the tournament. Ideally, you'll want to dress for warm weather but layer up in the mornings. This way, you can easily adjust your outfit throughout the day as the temperature changes - this is especially important for the evenings when the wind can get a little nippy. Now, let's chat about the dates. Of course, the Masters usually takes place in the first week of April and spans five days, including the Par 3 Contest on Wednesday. Depending on how long you'll be attending, you may need to plan multiple outfits to accommodate different weather conditions. And if you're attending any special events before, during or after the Masters golf tournament, you'll need to dress accordingly for those as well. Finally, you'll need to consider the time of day. If you're arriving early in the morning for the start of play, it may be a bit chilly, so be sure to dress warmly with layers you can peel off as the day goes on. And if you'll be sticking around in the evenings, you'll need to bring along an extra layer to stay cosy as the temperatures drop. |
Men's Clothing for The Augusta National
Shirts
When it comes to men's shirts at Augusta National, you'll want to keep it smart yet comfortable - think standard golf attire that has been slightly elevated. You can always opt for a collared shirt like a polo shirt or button-down. A t-shirt may be too casual for the Masters golf tournament.
Of course, you'll also want to ensure that your shirt is neatly pressed and tucked in for that polished look. Additionally, it's best to avoid too many patterns or loud colours. Instead, earth tones, or classic white or green are your best bet to blend in.
Trousers
For men's trousers, it's best to stick with a comfortable pair of khakis or a lightweight pair of golf trousers. Since you're going to be standing in the sun, you may also want to consider a pair of shorts. If you do opt for shorts, make sure that they sit just above your knee and aren't too short.
Outerwear
Since the weather tends to go from cooler to warmer as the day goes on, it's always a good idea to bring some outerwear in your bag to keep you warm. It may also come in handy when the evenings begin to cool down again! A light golf jacket or pullover works really well for layering, but try to stick to neutral colours to maintain a more refined look.
Remember, it's all about being prepared for whatever comes your way while staying stylish and comfortable on the course.
Women's Clothing For The Augusta National
Shirts
Ladies, it's your time to shine! For ladies' tops at Augusta National, you can pick almost any of Glenmuir's women's shirts for a tasteful yet ultra-stylish and comfortable option.
Since this is an elegant golf tournament, though, you'll want to avoid anything too tight or revealing. And, if you're going to wear a sleeveless top, remember to wear sunscreen, too! Particularly on your shoulders and along the length of your arms.
A great option for women is to layer your tops with a cardigan or light jacket for those cooler moments on the course.
Trousers
Similar to men, women's bottoms are easy to pick out. Ideally, you'll want to go for a tailored pair of trousers or well-fitted pants. Or, if you prefer a more casual look, knee-length shorts or golf skirts are also acceptable. Just make sure they're not too tight or too short!
Remember: Denim is a no-go at Augusta, so you're going to want to leave your jeans at home. Instead, you can check out Glenmuir's women's trousers and skorts for inspiration on what to wear.
Dresses
While dresses can be an incredibly convenient choice when you're attending the Masters golf tournament, it's important to pick the type of dress as carefully as possible. More modest styles like sundresses allow for easy movement and can be incredibly comfortable after a long day of spectating.
Still, you're going to need to choose some warm outer layers if you choose to wear a dress. It's also likely that you won't be able to wear heels with your dress - but if you're comfortable wearing flats and you have a cosy sweater, then a dress could look incredible!
Outerwear
Given the potential for windy, chilly, and also warm and sunny weather, it's wise to bring a jacket with you to Augusta National. As we've mentioned, a lightweight women's jacket or cardigan is perfect for layering over your outfit.
A jacket in a neutral tone or with classic patterns will also help you maintain a sophisticated look. Oh, and don't forget to accessorise with a hat or scarf to complete your ensemble and add some extra warmth or protection from the sun when you need it!
Accessories For The Augusta National
Footwear
Comfort is key when you're at Augusta National - after all, you may potentially be walking long distances to stay a part of the action. Comfortable golf shoes can provide good support, while other similar styles like tennis shoes or supportive sandals are amazing choices for both men and women.
According to the rules for patrons, golfing shoes with spikes are strictly prohibited, though. So, you won't want to pack anything with a heel to complete your outfit. Instead, flats are always the safest bet. You should also avoid any shoes with slippery soles to avoid losing your footing on the grassy terrain.
Headwear
Since the sun tends to get pretty intense during the day, having good head protection is essential at Augusta National! A structured golf cap or wide-brimmed hat will not only shield your face from the sun but it can also add a touch of style to your outfit if you choose it carefully!
You can also pair your favourite hat with a good pair of sunnies to protect your eyes even further from the harsh sun rays.
