Suit sleeves, straight or slant?

Should a suit sleeve be slanted or cut straight? I've always liked how a sleeve looks in a slant when on a hanger but I don't know if it necessarily looks right when on the body. Presumably the correct slant is when it’s in alignment when your arms are at natural position next to your side, like the way Vox always poses. That’s so that the angle of your wrist and hands would be on the same plane as the slant. You would then have the same shirt sleeve exposure all the way around the wrist.

I see that most of Vox’s suit sleeves are straight cut? Vox?

A slight slant on my suits usually leads to it looking straight during normal wear so that's what I prefer.
