beautiful people

Glamorous, fashionable set

Beautiful people refers to fashionable, wealthy, or socially prominent individuals—the glamorous set who frequent exclusive venues and attract media attention: The beautiful people gathered at the gala.

The phrase can be admiring or sardonic, implying superficiality beneath the polish.

It sometimes extends to any attractive, trendy crowd: the beautiful people of the art world.
