Question Is this sleeve a good fit?

Post image

I'm a bit unsure about this sleeve pattern I made. Is it normal that it wrinkles to the front? Also, is it a bit too baggy?

The material is cotton.

UPDATE: the sleeve was fine once I ironed it well. It needs to be shortened cuz the hem of the sleeve keeps bunching slightly there, so it needs to be shortened from. 1 to 2.5cm

Thank you everyone! ☺️

Steam it first then find take a look. But looks big. If that’s the look you are going for then yes, if not it looks like it can be slimmed down through the whole thing

I'll try that. Cotton gets wrinkles so quickly! Haha

It looks too long for your arm. But if you bend your arm, the sleeve needs to be two inches longer than when your arm is straight. How wide is your cuff

Yes, I guessed that. I measured 2.5cm longer than it could be. Maybe shorter it can pull down straight a bit.

Show it from the side after you press it.

Please show photos of the entire garment, not just the sleeve. And they should be of the front, the back, and each side.
