Grand amours understood to be fitting (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gloves

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'understood to be fitting' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'grand amours' is the wordplay.
'grand' becomes 'g' (G is short for grand as in a thousand).
'amours' becomes 'loves' (I've seen this in another clue).
'g'+'loves'='GLOVES'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gloves that I've seen before include "Handwear" , "Mitts" , "Hand coverings" , "Finger warmers" , "Hand covers" .)
