Early years
An only child, Malone and grew up in Livingston in Scotland. Throughout her childhood she attended dance and drama classes. She studied drama and art during high school and spent one school year training at 'Powder' circus school in Glasgow, specializing in trapeze and stilt walking. Malone attended Edinburgh College of Art 2003–2007 graduating with a BA Hons Degree in Performance Costume Design. During school holidays as a teenager she worked in a local alternative record store. A huge fan of American popular culture, she makes regular trips to Los Angeles. Malone specialized in striptease and acrobalance costumes and corsetry design for the final year of her costume design degree. She customizes or creates all her own performance costumes and has styled many photo shoots.
Inspired by classic American pin-up artwork, particularly WWII aircraft nose art, she studied this imagery in her art work and costume designs. Classic American pin-up beauties remain a large influence on her style.
