一对

a set of two matching items that are designed to be used together or regarded as one

What is a "pair"?

A pair typically refers to two items that are matched or intended to be used together, such as a pair of shoes or a pair of socks. In the context of clothing, a pair often describes items that come in two parts or are meant to be worn on two separate parts of the body, like a pair of pants or a pair of gloves. The term is often used to denote the need for two items to be worn together, such as a pair of earrings or a pair of cufflinks, in order to create a cohesive look. The use of the word "pair" emphasizes the importance of symmetry and balance in fashion, as well as the practical considerations of having two items that are functionally and aesthetically matched.
