The crop and positioning of the knee are a bit awkward as the scene looks as if your model has had her lower parts of her legs amputated. The crop at the elbow joint is a bit awkward as well (in general crops at the joint are not that effective).
This type of shot is often taken from above using a chair or small ladder to simplify the overall scene; just the model and the sheets on the bed are the "classic" approach to this type of image.
