Peter England of Nantucket

The first incarnation of this store, featuring Peter England’s luxuriously soft knitwear, ran from 1977 to 1986, in a different location. But the new shop is just as much a pleasure. Co-owners (and mother-daughter team) Nancy and Kari England have brought a stylish new modernity to the label; though the styles—including striped boatneck sweaters, pastel-colored polos, hooded pullovers, and chunky cardigans—are still classic, they’re now made from plush, exotically sourced materials like French silk and Japanese bamboo.
