My favourite foil cap trope reference is Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series. It has several characters with supernatural abilities that can affect other people's emotions, and aluminum happens to block all kinds of magic powers in Sanderson's larger book universe. So a lot of rich and important people wear hats that are lined with aluminum foil on the inside to protect them from emotional influence.

Edit: now that I'm thinking, it might be that the main character married his sister or something, but still
