"Ladies in Love" (1936) is a romantic comedy film directed by Edward H. Griffith. Starring Janet Gaynor, Constance Bennett and Loretta Young the film revolves around three roommates (Gaynor, Bennett, and Young) in exotic Budapest and their comical romantic adventures. Gaynor, Bennett, and Young were billed above the title, with Gaynor receiving top billing. The movie also featured Simone Simon, Don Ameche, Paul Lukas, and Tyrone Power.

Supporting player Simone Simon co-starred with James Stewart the following year in a remake of "Seventh Heaven", playing one of Janet Gaynor's greatest roles from the silent era.

Tyrone Power and Loretta Young made such an impact in this movie that they were quickly paired by the studio in several more films, including "Love Is News" (1937), "Cafe Metropole" (1937), "Second Honeymoon" (1937), and "Suez" (1938).

Constance Bennett is generally acknowledged by critics as having the best role in the film but her career went into a steep decline within a few years. Top-billed Janet Gaynor elected to leave films a couple of years later while still at her height, shortly after "A Star Is Born" and "The Young in Heart", in order to travel with her husband, Hollywood costume designer Adrian.
