1. stand the test of time.
2. something didn't age well.
Tips: It's not usually for a affirmative sentence, like It aged well. Not usually say it that way. Thats mostly about entertainment than fashion or style, add that it can be used for people.
3. timeless(something is classic and works all the time.)
Tips: It's very verstile for TV or fashion. Usually it's used with an affirmative sense.
Ex: The show I love Lucy is timeless.
4. go with trends
5. classic
Role Play

AEE: How to Talk About the Aging of Music, Movies, and Trends
Have you ever re-watched an old favorite movie and realized it didn't stand the test of time ?
to say something stand the test of time means it still good, popular or significant in some way years later.
off color jokes that never fly now.
低俗笑话现在都不流行了
life was so different back then.
那时的生活是如此的不同

1. it doesn't work anymore, that's uncomfortable now.
2. aged well.
老而有味：形容事物经过时间的沉淀，变得更有价值、更有魅力。
eg, the person aged well, they look really good.
3. timeless 永恒的不受时间影响的
this world is versatile, it can be used for fashion, TV, something is classic.
but we wouldn't say something isn't timeless.
versatile adj. 多才多艺的，有多种技能的；多用途的，多功能的
you should try different funny outfits that just go with the trends because when you look back that's a part of your past.
4. treasure 财富珍品
it was a treasure then in the 1990s, and it's a treasure now, we hold these things in high regard高度重视 whether it's a movie or a style, something is classic and timeless.

Role play
oh oh oh let's watch The Office.
love that show, it's a clasic.
totally, it stand the test of time.
yep, some episodes didn't aged well, but overall it's great.
agreed, everyone loves The Office, it's a good one.
