The movie is based on a book from 1926 called Traumnovelle. Kubrick has tried to get the movie made since the 1960s. The book is almost exactly the same as the movie including the people at the party wearing capes and Venetian masks. There was an adaption of the movie in the 1960s and the girl is wearing the same costumes as in the Kubrick version. The movie has nothing to do with the elites. It has the same meaning as the book and it's just about the relationship between the two main characters. Nothing more. There is a quote where Tom Cruise asked Kubrick if parties like this really exist and Kubrick said they will now.
