Hats of Tai leaves are rain hats made of the coco-grass or nut sedge. The small black caps are small caps (to bind the hair?).
Some say that Yin and Ji were the two noble surnames at that time. [I previously translated the "some say" as "one source" but I think "some say" is more accurate since it's not like they're citing anything...]
I think it's more just nostalgia for the past and using the aesthetics as a metaphor for the culture of that time?
