exclusive group
Members only club
An exclusive group is one that limits membership, admitting only those who meet certain criteria—wealth, status, talent, connections, or invitation.
The phrase often carries connotations of elitism or snobbery: They run in an exclusive group that doesn't welcome outsiders.
Country clubs, secret societies, and VIP sections are typical examples.
