For adding margins to specified cells, you can use this custom flow layout. https://github.com/voyages-sncf-technologies/VSCollectionViewCellInsetFlowLayout/

extension ViewController : VSCollectionViewDelegateCellInsetFlowLayout 
{
    func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UIEdgeInsets {
        if indexPath.item == 0 {
            return UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 0, bottom: 10, right: 0)
        }
        return UIEdgeInsets.zero
    }
}

         return UIEdgeInsetsMake(7, 10, 5, 10);    
   }
