Slender man on way oddly (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

willowy

'slender' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'man on way oddly' is the wordplay.
'man' becomes 'will' (short for William).
'oddly' indicates alternate letters (letters in the odd-numbered positions are used).
'on'+'way'='onway'
The alternating letters of 'onway' are 'owy'.
'will'+'owy'='WILLOWY'

(Other definitions for willowy that I've seen before include "Flexible" , "Like a slender person" .)
