Adding organza sleeves to sleeveless dress

Hi sewing people. I need a little assistance - I'm hoping to add sleeves to a sleeveless wedding dress, using silk organza. They will be fitted sleeves, and come to just below the elbow. Should I cut them on the straight grain or on the bias? And how much extra fabric should I add onto my upper arm measurement to make sure they are fitted but don't tear? With thanks.
