Fun Fashion History: Raglan

According to Wikipedia, the raglan sleeve style is named after Fitzroy Somerset, also known as Lord Raglan, a 19th century British commander­in­chief who is said to have worn a raglan­sleeved overcoat after the loss of his arm in the Battle of Waterloo. Some have speculated that the raglan style was developed because the sleeve fit better on his armless side than a traditional shoulder and sleeve.
