Best Answer

Roaring! and quite decadent.

Following World War I people socialised more and generally let their hair down. New fashions come into being along with new dances. People were generally relaxed about most things. However booze was restricted by the introduction of the Volstead Act (Prohibition) from 1920 to 1933, which put dampers on legal drinking parties. But bootleg booze was freely made available via the underworld so that people could carry on enjoying themselves.

Can anyone explain what a doggie cap looked like?

Well, if it is what I'd call a doggie cap (and nothing to do with dogs) it's like a flat cap, but with a larger 'top' that overhangs the rim slightly. Think 1920s, shooting parties, Bertie Wooster. Usually done in tweed, rather than felt.
