How to dress for the Masters: 25 stylish ideas we love

Are you ready for the Masters? Better yet, are you *going* to the Masters? If you have questions, our experts have answers. Here, in Masters 101, we’ll tell you what to bring, what not to bring, how to dress, what to buy and more.

If you’re lucky enough to have scored a ticket in the annual Masters lottery, congratulations! You’re in possession of one of the game’s most coveted badges. But with the week at Augusta National now looming, you may be wondering: what should I wear?

It’s a common question and one that has admittedly few wrong answers; however, the Patron Attendance Info section of the Masters website does offer some guidance. Hats, cool clothing and sunscreen are recommended for weather that can range from 50 to 80 degrees. Backpacks, bags and purses for personal items are subject to size requirements and can’t exceed 10″ x 10″ x 12″. Golf shoes with metal spikes are also a no-no. As for the rest of the rules regarding patrons’ apparel, the Masters issues only this sentence of guidance: “Appropriate clothing/shoes should be worn at all times.”

That leaves room for plenty of freedom — and indecision. If you’re looking to blend in with the masses, take a look at photos of patrons from Masters past. You’ll find that preppy, country-club ready style reigns supreme, but T-shirts and shorts are perfectly acceptable too.

The Masters Tournament Pinterest account has a fine collage of photos to offer some inspo. You’ll find gingham, seersucker and pastel-hued prints in abundance. Sundresses are also a popular choice. For both men and women, you can’t miss with a traditional collared shirt and sweater.

Below, you can check out some Masters-ready pieces we love from Fairway Jockey. And don’t worry — regardless of what you choose to wear, you can always plan to change into whatever logoed gear you buy at the Masters Golf Shop!
