Answer 1

it may help you
self.collectionView = [[UICollectionView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, self.view.frame.size.height) collectionViewLayout:flowlayout];
self.collectionView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(50, 0, 0, 0);
UIView *headerView = [[UIView alloc]init];
headerView.frame = CGRectMake(0, -50, 320, 50);
[self.collectionView addSubview: headerView];
[self.view addSubview: _collectionView];

Answer 2

Maybe you need return the size of the header in
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: MyFlowLayout, referenceSizeForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> CGSize {
return CGSize(width: xx, height: xx)
}
