80's Ladies is the debut studio album by American country music artist K. T. Oslin, released on June 30, 1987, by RCA Records Nashville. The album, her first, propelled her to success in mainstream country, after an earlier first failed attempt with Elektra Records consisting of two singles released in 1982. She had signed with RCA at 45 years old.

Commercially, the record topped the Billboard country chart, along with peaking at number 68 on the main Billboard 200, making it the highest-charting country album in her career. It was certified platinum in the United States by the RIAA and gold in Canada. Five singles were released from the album, with one being released in the UK. Its self-titled single was praised by fans and critics, eventually winning Best Female Country Vocal Performance at the 1987 Grammy Awards. Oslin became the first woman to win "Song of the Year" at the Country Music Association Awards. The song also earned Oslin the top female vocalist award at the Academy of Country Music Awards (ACM) and won the ACM award for music video of the year. The album garnered many major award nominations throughout 1988, and fairly favorable reviews from music critics. Following the album's release, Oslin embarked on tours with Alabama and George Strait.
