Well known areas for clothes shops are of course in the center (via del Corso) and via Cola di rienzo BUT...
...I wouldn't say they have good prices! All tourists areas are expensive. Romans go elsewhere to buy something.
(Let's not talk about via Condotti, the prices are extremely high, only for millionaires!)

Since you are searching for clothes, you are a teenager and I suppose you will use public transport while staying in Rome, I would recommend you:

- San Giovanni (near the Basilica). You can easily reach the area by underground A, step off at San Giovanni. During the morning (until 1:00 pm) there is also a cute clothes street market "via Sannio" (at the right side of "Coin", a big clothes store), it worths a visit. Going by foot on via Appia Nuova, you'll find plenty of clothes shops. By the way, it has nothing to do with clothes, but when there, try the "supplÃ¬" at pizzeria "La casa del supplÃ¬" in Piazza Re di Roma (it's near the supermarket Sma), they are really delicious!

- via Tuscolana (you can easily reach it by underground A, you can step off at Numidio Quadrato and walk this long street full of clothes shops (walk in direction outside the city, you'll see some hills at the horizon). At the end of the shops (after Subaugusta station) there is also a shopping mall called "CinecittÃ 2" (since it is near the cinema studios). You won't find tourists there, while it's very popular among locals!
Via Tuscolana clothes shop area includes underground stations Numidio Quadrato, Lucio Sestio, Giulio Agricola, Subaugusta. In the area there is also a big public park with beautiful archeological rests called "Parco degli Acquedotti", it also worths a visit.

The best places to shop in rome are the little shops that you see on the side of the road. Don't go into any big tourist place, cause all they have there are crappy regular clothes.
Hope I helped!
