The power suit, or power dressing, is what has been associated with "dress for success" for quite a long time. The wikipedia article is probably a good starting point. This formal business attire is still what is being preached by the dress for success "movement". Sure, it's no longer the 80s style padded shoulders, but if you don't wear Hugo Boss (or alike) you're not dressing for success. Even ties are still included as requirement for professional dressing.
