The band 2Z will take the stage for the opening and closing performances of the mega-scale multi-cultural fashion week ‘MAW 2026’ on the 22nd and 23rd.

The one-of-a-kind band 2Z (Tuji), which traverses the global fashion and music scenes, will brilliantly bookend ‘MAW 2026’, the first classic car fashion week in Korea.

2Z has been officially invited to ‘MAW 2026 × Classic Car Show (co-hosted by World K-pop Center and Apgujeong Sigoljwi)’, to be held over two days from the 22nd to the 23rd at Crest72 in Jangchung-dong (World K-pop Center).

2Z will not only walk the runway as models but also take the stage as the main artists in charge of the opening and finale.

Comprising members who all began as fashion models, 2Z has continued to collaborate with numerous fashion brands since its debut, establishing itself as the ‘most stylish band’. Their participation in this ‘MAW 2026’ comes on the strength of close ties with designer brands that have shared deep musical and fashion rapport with 2Z, making it even more meaningful.

Among the seven brands participating in this show, 2Z will appear for designer Lee Yong-beom’s ‘W HOMME’, which has provided stage outfits since the group in its early days and continued fashion show collaborations, and for designer Yoon Jong-gyu’s ‘John&3:21’, with whom they presented a powerful collaboration at the 2026 Seoul Fashion Week. In addition, they will once again join forces with brands that embody the essence of modern hanbok, ‘TM3’, ‘Ettwal’, and ‘Seollihwa’, with whose outfits they have performed on many overseas stages, helping to promote K-culture, and together they are set to light up the runway.

2Z has been tapped as the main performer for the opening show on the 22nd, which raises the curtain on the festival, and the ending show on the 23rd, which will adorn the finale. In keeping with the concept of this show, which combines an exhibition of 1930s classic cars and light aircraft, 2Z is determined to present an ‘unprecedented collaboration’ stage that fuses timeless style with explosive live music.

Now in its third year, ‘MAW 2026’ is a mega-scale multi-cultural fashion week that, following collaborations with a Banksy exhibition (1st year) and an Alphonse Mucha special exhibition (2nd year), this year combines exhibitions of classic cars and light aircraft from U.S.-based Hummel Aviation. With around 150 multinational and multi-generational models and a total of seven top-tier designer brands participating, it is expected to open a new chapter in the Korean fashion scene.

The standout presence of 2Z, which is breaking down the boundaries between fashion and music and building a unique domain, can be witnessed on-site at ‘MAW 2026’ over the two days on the 22nd and 23rd.
