Add border to an svg

I have an SVG used as a divider and I was wondering if on the curve of the svg, I can add a blue or black border that follows the path of the curve.

<svg width="100%" height="96px" viewBox="0 0 100 100" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" preserveAspectRatio="none">
           <path fill="#f4f6ff" d="M0,0 C40,33 66,52 75,52 C83,52 92,33 100,0 L100,100 L0,100 L0,0 Z"></path>
     </svg>

Sure - just draw a path with a stroke on top of the shape.

<svg width="100%" height="96px" viewBox="0 0 100 100" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" preserveAspectRatio="none">
           <path fill="#f4f6ff" d="M0,0 C40,33 66,52 75,52 C83,52 92,33 100,0 L100,100 L0,100 L0,0 Z"></path>
                      <path fill="none" stroke="grey" stroke-width="1px" d="M0,0 C40,33 66,52 75,52 C83,52 92,33 100,0"></path>
     </svg>

You can also stroke the original path and use a stroke-dasharray of the appropriate construction to make the dash cover just the top of the shape. Or you can use a svg filter to add a border to the top edge. Just drawing the border explicitly is the most straightforward.

You can use the CSS filter property if you can't directly edit the SVG to add the path (which might be a better way to go).

svg path {
  filter: drop-shadow(0 -2px 0 blue);
}
<svg class="curve" width="100%" height="96px" viewBox="0 0 100 100" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" preserveAspectRatio="none">
           <path fill="#f4f6ff" d="M0,0 C40,33 66,52 75,52 C83,52 92,33 100,0 L100,100 L0,100 L0,0 Z"></path>
     </svg>
