The objective of this article is to present data about the cultural practices and lifestyle of sectors of the São Paulo elites. It is an effort to dialogue with the bibliography in order to update the knowledge about this social group. To develop the argument, the data will be analysed from the point of view of gender, age and time of belonging to the elites. In this way, three social markers are problematised in the expectation of carrying out a reflection that goes beyond what is known about the dominant strata of the city of São Paulo providing the opportunity to endorse or not the theory of the cultural legitimacy of the elites. What was observed is that the group presents a certain uniformity in their tastes and practices, whilst at the same time highlighting differences between them over time.
