It's basically the name used for Britain's high society during the regency and the reign of Prinny once he became king. You can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ton_(le_bon_ton)

It's a little hard to look up since it's a pretty common word, but if you notice, the word is in italics. That's because it's used to represent the fact that the word is not in fact English, though it was used in English. This is how it is written in a lot of works of literature.
