Explanation:
Εάν πρόκειται για κινητό κά. (μάλλον για γυναικείο αγοραστικό κοινό):

„Thin, sleek, slim, slender” = «Λεπτό, στιλπνό, φίνο, κομψό»

Το ζητούμενο ίσως είναι όχι η απόδοση του sleek (ως μεμονωμένου επιθέτου), αλλά η εξεύρεση «ωραίων» ελληνικών επιθέτων, ισάριθμων κατά προτίμηση, ασχέτως του τι σημαίνει το ένα και το άλλο μόνο του, απομονωμένο.

agree  Maria Karra: καλά το φίνο και το κομψό, αλλά στιλπνό γιατί; Στιλάτο, ελκυστικό.
