"Un altro paio di maniche" #idiomatic expression "That's another pair of sleeves"😁 is a colorful expression that we use in Italian to describe something that is a completely different thing with no connection to a previous one. We can use this expression to remark a strong difference between two things. As an example: the man says that the lunch prepared by his wife cannot be compared to the lunch prepared by his mother

In English you can say: That's a horse of a different color. That's like comparing apples & oranges.

Thank you Dava. I read that in British English you can say It's another kettle of fish" I'm not sure if the meaning is exactly the same though.
