Does anyone have any information on the scholars' headdress and the meaning of these strange stems of at least 50 centimeters on each side of the head and more broadly information on clothing ?

Here's another fun fact I thought I'd share regarding these hats:

"The futou worn by the Song dynasty officials had an extended reclined feet; it was developed by having two hard ribbons made out with iron wire or bamboo strips attached at the back of the futou. According to the Pedantic Remarks of the Confucians by Yu Yan, this form of futou might have been d eveloped to prevent the officials from whispering to each other during court audience with the Emperor."
