Those are kits that come with the label to sew in! If you search for the pattern, you will find it and the date it was released.
Home sewn. These were high end sewing patterns by Vogue that came with a label.
I believe Vogue Paris Originals were created by specific French designers.

I agree, this label is from a Vogue Paris Original sewing pattern. Vogue Paris Original were always based on French/Paris-based designers. It's a great coat, but I don't think it's 1960s. With those raglan sleeves and that decorative topstitching, I'm seeing much more 1980s.
I've done a quick search around the Vintage Pattern Wiki, which unfortunately brought now exact result. But of course the Wiki only has what people have added there and it's never complete. This 1980s Givenchy pattern does not have raglan sleeves and the collar is different, but the silhouette and topstitching are similar features and the overall look and silhouette remind me of yours as well: https://vintagepatterns.fandom.com/wiki/Vogue_2606_A
I’m not sure either, I wanted to try out just sending a picture to ChatGPT to see if it could figure out anything and it said the silhouette and color are consistent with some 1960s high-fashion designs

Also is there somewhere or someone I can take it to figure out when/where/who made it?
It was made by a home sewer, from a Vogue Sewing Pattern. You won't be able to find out who made it, it could be anyone. You can only try and identify the sewing pattern, but that isn't easy, as Midge has already found out.
