Suits and pants are much slimmer than they were 25 years ago. They're cut differently. Pants are different in length, with far less of a break now.
Look at photos of people in suits from 1999, or just watch movies from then. They're swimming in fabric. Not to mention how wide the neckties were.
Even for men, timeless style isn't a thing. Look at how gigantic shirt collars were in the 1970's.
Men's styles don't change as drastically as women's (remember shoulderpads?) but even traditional suits and shirts and ties go through major shifts of size and proportion every couple decades.
Sure you can wear suits and shirts and ties from 25 years ago, but you'll either look like someone who's making a deliberate retro-inspired fashion choice (if you're pulling it off), or else you'll look like someone who hasn't bought new clothes in 25 years (if you're not pulling it off).
But in neither case will you look "timeless". There's no such thing.
