Eliza, "mash your corns" is a West Indian phrase. Sometimes in the elision of two words it can sound like there is another letter, like a "t".

MacDee is just a guess. Perhaps a topical reference to what was current at the time. And fashion/style is being discussed. In any case, the earlier word in the line sounds like "shorts," rather than "shots" to me.
