Really great photos!
Thanks very much!
I know that the "parade" cord would be the standard white.
I referred to the uniform in this post as an "honor guard" uniform simply because the non-officer uniforms that I have seen, and which have had the gold aiguillette under the shoulder board, have all been in photos of members of an honor guard (such as the KGB honor guard at Lenin's tomb).
I don't know for certain that that is what this uniform is, but it's the closest description based on the presence of the cord.
By the way, this cord does indeed have the gold-colored metal "nozzle" at the end of it, it simply was hidden in the photos.
