If you are lazy using delegate.

extension UICollectionView {
    func setItemsInRow(items: Int) {
        if let layout = self.collectionViewLayout as? UICollectionViewFlowLayout {
            let contentInset = self.contentInset
            let itemsInRow: CGFloat = CGFloat(items);
            let innerSpace = layout.minimumInteritemSpacing * (itemsInRow - 1.0)
            let insetSpace = contentInset.left + contentInset.right + layout.sectionInset.left + layout.sectionInset.right
            let width = floor((CGRectGetWidth(frame) - insetSpace - innerSpace) / itemsInRow);
            layout.itemSize = CGSizeMake(width, width)
        }
    }
}

PS: Should be called after rotation too
