I am not sure whether I should call the cheery patterned part of the skirt "a hem" or something.

I want to make the hem stick to the upper part of the skirt.

Suppose the hem hasn't come off as shown in the picture but it is about to come off.

Is it correct to say "The hem almost came off. Sew/stitch the hem or the strim back to the skirt"?
