A Slinky? As in the toy? Since it is a brand name it probably would not be translated. Now if you meant a slinky, black dress (una vestida que marca las curvas...according to our dictionary) that would be something else.
From an article on origin of the Slinky toy:
She dubbed the toy Slinky (meaning "sleek and graceful"), after finding the word in a dictionary, and deciding that the word aptly described the sound of a metal spring expanding and collapsing.
