Solution

North and West.

Explanation:

The direction diagram is as follows:

One man is facing south, thus one lady will be facing north (as persons opposite to each other are of opposite sex). Further, as no lady is facing east, another lady will face west and another man will face east. Thus, the ladies are facing North and West as shown in the above diagram.
